Benjamin G. "Ben" Grooters

To Ben's family,
I loved Ben so much and am greatful for the few years that I was able to share my family with him. Although he and Holly did not work out, I know she loved him too, and we all miss him. I cannot think of a mean word he ever said about anyone, and think of him with his sweet smiling face (cute dimple included). I feel proud of how courageous he was and know that he is happy now. I will never forget him and miss him already.

I also went to highschool with Ben, He will be missed. Your family is in my prayers and thoughts durning this time

To Ben,
Thank you for being a great neighbor and buddy when we grew up! You showed me how to hunt, build tree forts and shoot bow. You will be missed buddy.
To becky, rick, lee and ken:
I am very sorry about the loss of ben. Please stay strong and remember that the good Lord is taking care of him now! May the Lord be with you at your time of need.

always,
Michael Bergstrom

My thoughts and prayers are with you all. May the strength of your love for each other help you during this hard time.

I went to high school with Ben, and I am so sorry to hear of your loss. You are in my thoughts and prayers.

Becky & Barb...I am so very, very sorry to hear of Ben's untimely death. I know that so many prayers were for his recovery. So sorry that we are not in Michigan to help in some way.
Our thoughts and prayers are with you and the entire family.
Judy & Mac Thomas

We thought the world of Ben. We will sadly miss him and all his hunting stories. We our glad he came into our lives and made him a part of our family in WV.
Love
Chuck, Linda Metcalf & children

Our most sincere condolences. Please know that you are in our thoughts and prayers.

"Ben, I can only hope that you had a strong family support and network. I pray that someone was holding your hand as you went to be with the Lord. I am sorry that your life here on earth was a harder battle then most will ever fight. I am thankful for having that chance to know you back in High School and I am sorry for bragging to you that I got to meet Ted Nugent back in 9th grade. Rest in Peace Ben, I know that you are in a better place free of pain and suffering. I will keep your family...
