Benjamin Thomas Hartford

Ben, I appreciated you as a friend and mentee cause you always looked to help me as much as I tried to help you; moreover, you always looked to mentor people at Baruch and other groups. Rest in peace! You are remembered and missed. - Tas

Nora, I just learned of your unimaginable loss. I am so sorry.

Ben,

I am so sad to learn the news of your passing.

We accomplished some great things together--Key Sq and the mother-daddy of them all: Peterson. And we had fun while doing it, too. I am happy to have shared those accomplishments with you and will always remember you for that.

We will all miss your goofy smile, your humor, and your energy. You left this earth far too soon, with new challenges yet conquered and love and memories yet realized.

May...

New Ben well up in Portland Maine, great kid really sorry to hear he's gone, RIP bud rest in power

Although I met Ben once, he gave me my first opportunity to do photo/video work for DJs in NYC. Not many people showed up to support him that night but that didnt stop him from doing what he loved. We created a friendship that night and once I exchanged my photos/video with him he was more than happy and that brought a smile to my face. This world is a crazy place where the good are taken way too soon. May you bring the deep house sets to the heavens above. Rest easy Ben, and my sincere...

Ben, we were so lucky to grow up with you; you taught us to embrace adventure and to step out of fear into new experiences. We miss you.

Still at a loss for words and shocked that a young and beautiful soul has gone so soon. A musical genius, intelligent, hard worker and social butterfly. My condolences go out to his family and I pray and believe Ben is in a more beautiful place than we can imagine continuing to make wonderful music. You are loved and truly missed by many
