Not sure what to say?

As a tour director with Christian Tours, I had the honor to travel with Ben. He was a professinol , a gentleman and a great personiality. He is well thought of by those who knew him well and those who only met him breifley. So many are just now finding out about this tradgedy. He will always be missed. Heartfelt sympathies to all who knew and loved him and especially Anita and family.

Sorry to hear of the loss of Ben. I was a mechanic with Christian Tours while Ben drove there. Always a nice guy, usually with a good joke.

May our Heavenly Father rain down peace and comfort on your family during this difficult time.

From our side of the family to yours. Our prayers are with you, We love you and we are grieving with you as well. It is our prayer that God holds you all in the palm of his hand and hides you under his wings to collect your heart felt tears and protect you while you grieve.

"For God so loved the world he sent his only son, so that we may not perish but have everlasting life......" John 3:16

Anita, Benjamin, Ivy,
I am so very sorry to hear about the passing of Ben. I remember when Pa Roy and Grandma Connie passed , Ben was there for us and my grandparents loved him very much. Ben and I shared conversations over the years and hashed over law enforcement. I so much appreciated him and his advice. He is and always will be a great friend and beloved and missed family member. I wish I could wave my magic wand and bring Monday back to the 3 of you and make the accident...

Many memories we do share and our family will never forget. Some special times we had together as family.
Anita, Benjamin, Ivy, so sorry for your loss. It breaks my heart as well. Thanks ben for coming and getting us and flying with us when you and your Ben did. We will miss Ben, but we will see him again in heaven!! Once Navy brothers ALWAYS NAVY!
Love,
Tommy
