When I heard what had happened to Ben my heart just dropped to into my stomach. It was hard n' still is to accept that he is gone, but I carry him in my heart and I know he's in a better place. I had only known Ben for about a year but I grew close to him. He was such a great friend and always brought my spirits up when I was down just by his smile.

Our hearts are heavy learning of the tragic loss of Benny! We want you to know we are remembering all of you in our prayers. Love, Phil and Jan Wilkes

To Ben:

I already miss you, Ben. This was not the way someone like you should have gone. You did not pass away from us; you were ripped away from us. I did and still do love you deeply as a close friend. I will miss you and our dear friend Scott so long as I go through this life without you. Rest in Peace, Nubbs.

Ben was a very loyal friend and i can't even believe hes no longer with us. We will miss him very much. We wish his family much love, stregnth, and courage for the days to come.
