Connie,
Our prayers are with you and your family during this time. I'm so glad I had the opportunity to renew friendship with Ben after all the years between high school and adulthood, and to meet you. Dinkey will miss him greatly, her little brother she calls him. May God continue to bless you and your children and grandchildren, and carry you through this heartache.
