BENJAMIN KESSEL

Ben Kessel was a valued member of the Greentown Labs community where he was often the champion of our pool league, a collaborator in discussions on neat ideas to benefit the world, and a jolly giant who emanated sublime intelligence and grace. I was always happy to see Ben and share time with him.

Ben era un chico genial, le encantaba venir con su madre Irene a Sanlúcar a ver sus primos y sus tíos políticos, todos nosotros de aquí sentimos mucho la pérdida y te tendremos siempre en la memoria y en nuestro corazón allí donde vayas estarás querido Benjamín. Que Dios te bendiga. Muchos Besos.

Sending lots of love your way

Ben’s dry sense of humor and lighthearted chuckle always made me smile. While we worked together, my mission was to see how many times I could make him laugh in a day. The Boston cleantech startup community will feel emptier without him. My thoughts and prayers go out to Ben’s family and loved ones.

gentle mellow soul like father
brilliant loving generous soul like mother inspired us to get high on life without substances
a steady climber your whole life
you knew the way Ben ❤ RIP

I was saddened to hear about the loss of Ben. He was a bright and happy student of mine during my first year of teaching. My thoughts and prayers go out to all of the Kessel family.
