Hey Ben Even though we hadn't seen each other since before Cam's passing, it's always felt like we have. A good feeling you left on others. Or maybe its just the ringing in my ears still. :) Look out next world, here comes a good one.

What a loss, Ben was always smiling and cheerful. I loved seeing him when I lived in the same building. He was like a bright star in a world of dull rocks. RIP Ben. ❤

Benny, it was an honour to have known you for the past 12 years. You are missed by many. It still seems odd walking into the Storm /Sami office and not seeing you sitting in your chair doing the odd head bob trying to stay awake. Lol. We all miss Ben .

A Genuine man with a heart of gold. He loved whole heartedly and spread happiness through his words and of course that contagious laugh. While our friendship was brief, he brought out the best in me and made me happier on my bad days. Thank You Benny. Condolences to His family and loved ones. He will be with me in spirit and memories. Rest in peace Ben.

Ben, your constant optimism and never ending smile will sorely be missed. Even when I spoke with you on your birthday, you were laughing , in great spirits and I could picture the twinkle in your eyes. I will always have the best memories of your loving soul.
