Dr. Benjamin R. Balin

I remember Ben as a kind and gentle man; he was so active and interested in life for an "old guy" when I met him in 1972-he was roughly my age now-53--he would stand in front of the mirror and practice his form over and over, whether it was tennis-backhand or bending his knees for skiing the bumps-that is when he wasn't practicing guitar or dancing--when we were skiing he would listen to pointers and really tried hard to do everything he was told.
he was so kind to me with skiing trips,...

Dr. Nancy Balin,
I am so sorry to hear of the loss of your Dad. You are in my thoughts and prayers.

We are very sad at the passing of Ben Balin. He was like a second father to me. May his passing be a blessing.

We are so sorry to hear of Ben's passing. Mac always spoke so highly of both Ben and Sally. Our hearts go out the the entire Balin Family.

I remember Dr. Benjamin Balin as a gentleman and a gentle man. He had a kind word for all of his and his son's office staff. He once hired my son Danny who was 14 years old to help move Arthur into his home off of Chester Road. My son tells the story that he helped move about 800 bookcases into Dr. Balin's house, and Ben was his partner that day. He was extremly nice to him, telling him he did a great job. He also slipped Dan an extra $20.00 and said "don't tell anyone about the bonus".

Dr. Ben Balin was a kind and gentle man and he was admired and loved by everyone who knew him. I am privileged to have known him and he will be missed very much.

I had the pleasure of working for Dr. Ben Balin in the late '60s and early '70s when he had his weight loss practice. I have such fond memories of Dr. Balin (and Sally). He was such a kind and gentle man and his patients adored him. Even though I have not been in touch for a long time, I will always remember him.

Fond memories of the Balin's being one of the first couples welcoming us into the Wallingford community and inviting us to their home for one of their many evenings of entertainment.
