Bela F. Ballo

Remembering you fondly.

Every time I make a Hungarian, Bean and Sausage, or Potato based Soup, I now think of Bela. I think of him often, as we spoke over the internet nearly daily for over a decade. He was a good friend, and I and many others that knew him online, still think of him often, and miss his friendship.

Dearest Ballo Family, we are heartbroken to hear of Dr. Ballo's passing. Our deepest condolences to you Mrs. Ballo and family. He will be missed by those of us who were blessed to know him. Wishing you courage and strength during this most profound time of sadness.

Condolences to Dr. Matthew Ballo and family. Prayers comfort.

I worked at Lake Hospitals with Dr Ballo for 23 years. He will never surely be missed by so many of us. I am sorry for the family, my prayers are with you.

Condolences Matt to you and your family.

I knew Bela as "humongous". He was my 2M8TA clanmate in World of Tanks. His passing has broken the hearts of many in our clan and 2M8TO, our sister clan. His reach was worldwide as our members come from all over; it made it to me on the Gulf Coast of Texas. He is already sorely missed.
