I enjoyed the company of Bennie while in Boy Scouts. Went to National Jamboree at Valley Forge in 1957with him. I was in Troop 135 in Lake Wales; also camped on his dads ranch. Great memories! Sorry to hear everyone's loss. God Bless!

I am very sorry to hear about Ben Hill's passing. I spoke with pride about him to my coworkers when I lived in Naples, FL. Many did not know that Ben Hill Griffin Parkway was just not a road!

Ben Hill was a very fun-loving, sweet soul as a teenager. Unfortunately it has been many a year since I last saw him. I am sure he did not change. It is very heartbreaking for old friends to pass. My prayers and thoughts are with his children and their families. May God bless you and hold you in his loving arms as you go through these heart-wrenching times. May he rest in peace as he so deserves.
