Benjamin Berry Carter

Tyler, Melinda, Becky, and Adam,
Jan told me of your tragic loss. I remember very fondly the time I was priveledged to spend with Ben as an infant and toddler. Though I didn't see much of him after that I remember fondly the stories passed on to me by others of his trials and accomplishments. I know he is sorely missed.

Melinda & Tyler,
I remember coaching Ben in soccer in 1995 and what a great attitude he had. He was such a pleasure to have on the team. I know he turned into a fine young man. I am very sorry for your loss.

Melinda, my sincere sympathy is with you at this time. It's been years, but kindred spirits from times gone by run deep. Bless you for raising such a fine, respected young man. I am very sorry for your loss. May God comfort you as only He can.

My prayers are with you and your family,

Charlotte (Green) Sherry

Melinda,
I remember how deeply Ben was wanted. I remember when he was born. I remember that, even as a very young boy, Ben had an exuberance about him that was undeniable. What a challenge and blessing it must be for you to have had such a child to nurture, and raise. You have done a fabulous job. Ben has left his indelible impression on this earth. He will not be forgotten.
I love you,
Jan

I remember Ben, He always at lunch in my area. I work at the high school in the lunch room in bb2. My son remember ben he was junior when ben was senior. And they was close friends and they may had played jenks youth baseball together. Michael young (My Son) and Brock Edwards Brock graduate with Ben they was closed friends.

Ben was a very sweet young man.
