Benjamin had an incredible attitude, amazing sense of humor, and was a tremendous leader among his teammates. I enjoyed coaching him at SwimMAC, and will always remember how hard he worked, but even more, how nice he was. I send love and prayers to Benjamins family, and everyone who knew him.

Ben was an amazing friend and teammate. His kindness and compassion for others was truly to be admired. He was one of the most hardworking, passionate, friendly guys I have ever met. My deepest condolences go out to the entire Hager Family. SwimMAC has lost one of its brightest and most vibrant athletes. Although Ben can't be with us in the pool anymore, he will surely not be forgotten.

I have just heard the news and I am heartbroken for your family.
"The righteous cry out, and the Lord hears them;
he delivers them from all their troubles.
18 The Lord is close to the brokenhearted
and saves those who are crushed in spirit."
I will keep you in my prayers.

It is my deepest hope that with the passage of time and the recollection of fond memories, this pain you bear will ease. My boys are all in IB at MPHS, and they spoke well of your son. Your family will be in my thoughts.
