Have my sister Rose on the phone to tell her about Ben's death. We have fond memories of him when he was our big cousin and visited his grandma in Ashland and took us bike riding.
Our love and prayers are with you all.

Grandpa, nothing in the world can ever replace you. I will forever cherish every memory I have, like sitting on your lap to watch the news.Know that you are always with me, always asking about the weather. You were the best grandpa a little girl could have.
I love you and will miss you always

Grandpa,
If tears could build a stairway,
And memories were a lane.
I would walk right up to heaven,
To bring you home again.
No farewell words were spoken,
No time to say good-bye.
You were gone before I knew it,
And only God knows why.
My heart still aches in sadness,
And secret tears still flow.
What it meant to lose you,
No one will ever know.
You and angels around Gods happy throne.
I would have held you closer if I had known - Artist unkown.
I love you and will miss you forever.

We are greatful for all the wonderful memories that we have. Even the simple things like the bowl of chocolate candy next to his chair that he would teese us with & Grandma would tell us all we had to do to get him to share was to give him a great big kiss. Grandpa will be loved & missed very much.

I send my condolences to you Millie and your family. I rember some years ago, I saw Ben at the Linoma Beach. After we had a cold apple cider, Ben invited me over the the house for some of your fried fish. I think he did call you and let you know I was coming over. I had a good time. I always enjoyed seeing Ben at the Legion Club. I will miss seeing and visiting with him. Our world would be a better place, if we had more people like Ben. God Bless!
