BEN CHECKOWY Memoriam
BEN CHECKOWY August 14, 1951 - January 11, 2014 It broke our hearts to lose you, but you did not go alone. A part of us went with you, the day God took you home. If tears could build a stairway, and heartaches make a lane, we'd walk our way to Heaven, and bring you back again. In life we loved you dearly, in death we love you still. In our hearts you hold a place no one could ever fill.
Lovingly remembered and dearly missed by mother Helen, wife Judy Danelley, sister Louise (Lyle) Bell, brother Jack (Francine), children Jason (Joelynn) Kaufhold & Robin (Julian) Sanders, grandchildren Amelia, Elizabeth, Xavier & Matthias, and numerous other family members.
