Not sure what to say?

Ben was a true friend in every sense of that phrase: companionable, interested, helpful, understanding. He and I, with our wives, enjoyed life together. He was always available when legal service was needed and his professional skills were exceptional. I shall never stop missing him.

My dearest Sam:

May you find comfort in all the wonderful memories of your wonderful father. With sincere sympathy and love.

Ben Phelosof will be greatly missed. I will also remember him as a true gentleman and gentle man in every sense of the word. He was a kind, loyal friend to my mom and dad, and I always loved his wit and wisdom. It was a privilege to know Ben.

It was a pleasure to make common cause with Ben dating back to the 60's in legal matters and on behalf of the ACLU and the Monroe County Democratic Party. I valued his friendship and his legal ability.
