Not sure what to say?

Uncle Ben,
I know that you are in a better place now. When people heard thatyou passed, your friends and family came as fast as they could. When you passed I cried because I was happy that you were in a better place and not suffering fron the pain that the cancer was causing you. When you passed I asked God why him? He told me in my heart that I need him up here so he could watch over some one and be their guardin angel and make sure thet don't pass when it wasn't theie time. When the...

God Saw You...

God saw you getting tired,
When a cure was not to be.
So He wrapped his arms around you,
and whispered, "Come to me".
You didn't deserve what you went through,
So He gave you rest.
God's garden must be beautiful,
He only takes the best
And when I saw you sleeping,
So peaceful and free from pain
I could not wish you back
To suffer that again.

Please accept my deepest sympathies and prayers of comfort.

Well Benny, I thought of what to say! Please help us to see something positive come out of this. We all have lost so much we need a reason. I didn't know you very well Ben (just Tahoe and Paso trips) but I liked what I knew. You were so layed back and accepting of everyone! You just wanted to live life...from what I saw. I'm so sorry it was cut short. We all love you and hope to laugh with you (or at you)again :) J-me

May I first send my sincerest condolences to Bens family. I most remember Ben early in high school when we were learning guitar together. We had our rival bands and playing in Bens garage and Brandons garage. We met becuase we both had a love for music. We created a wonderful frienship that I will remember the most. Ben was a man that cared no matter who you were. Ben, you will always be in my thoughts.

Keep 'em rockin heaven, Love Ya!

Ben, you will be miss, we enjoyed your company and the times you came to the house to eat, boy did you love to eat, but my wife Ricardo's mom loved to cook for you.Rest in peace.

Benjamin..I have never seen anyone walk with more grace, strength and courage than you have shown this last 1 1/2 years. In spite of what you were going through you lived for now and looked to the future.You were there for your friends and family, weither it was installing a new dishwashwer, hanging drywall,camping by the lake with friends, or going to dinner with the guys. Memorial weekend you found Erin and she found you how wonderful that was to see. I'm so proud of you Ben,I will miss...

My deepest sympathy to Lynda. It is so diffuclt to loose a child. I am keeping you and the girls in my prayers daily. I wish I could be there to wrap my arms around you. I love you!

Ben, We will miss you, but your friends will never forget you.
