Not sure what to say?

He was such a fine man. He has been a blessing to me and my family. It was an honor to have him as a mentor.

Kay and family, Ben leaves a legacy behind in support of public education for all students in Imperial Valley. He has been a true friend to Imperial Valley Center for Exceptional Children and a mentor to so many of us. He was always thinking of others and reaching out to those in need. He will be missed and our prayers go out to you,

May your hearts soon be filled with wonderful memories of joyful times together as you celebrate a life well lived.

Ben will be greatly missed by so many in Imperial Valley. It seems he was always doing something for someone else. God bless his family.
