Not sure what to say?

Ben was my supervisor for 10 years. I found him to be both an interesting and knowledgeable individual. Through the years we had numerous conversations covering a variety of topics. Although we did not always agree, we were able to talk freely with one another and respected each other’s point of view. I miss these conversations. I learned from Ben and I will always remember him as I truly enjoyed him.

Ben was my supervisor here at LMID until he retired. I consider it a privledge to have known and worked with him. My condolences to his family. He will be missed by all of us.

It was my privilege to be Ben's manager for most of ten years. I consider him a close friend. Ben was extremely proud of his family, and would regale us at work with stories of the latest accomplishments of various children, grandchildren, siblings, and other family members. Each time he would tell a story, we would tease him, asking how he ended up in the midst of such a sterling group. He would always laugh and say "I'm just doing the best I can."

That is a fitting epitaph for...

Ben was an all-around great guy. Every morning, Ben would come by our cubicles & greet each of us with a "Good Morning" & ask how we were doing. He was always willing to lend an ear if we had a question or something we wanted to talk out.
I'll always remember the advice he gave me on building my own water garden & the encouragement/support he gave me when I had hesitations about leaving LMID.

Ben was one of the first people to help me feel welcome at EDD when I started. He's a beautiful spirit that Heaven will welcome with open arms.

I remember seeing Ben just about every morning in the employee breakroom as we washed our cups and got ready for another day of work. He was always a cordial person and upbeat - he will be missed!

Ben always had a wonderful outlook and I will always remember how elated he got when he could go home and ride his bike. My heartfelt sympathy to his family.

Ben touched a lot of people with his positive attitude.
My condolences to the family at this time.

Ben , you touched a lot of people with your style, grace and humor.
You will be greatly missed by all who knew you.
