Ben was a wonderful man who reached out to students in a way that is rarely seen now.
He was able to sense the need and provide guidance, coaching support and metering to many students. His gentle and encouraging manner was a joy to see, and is greatly missed.
My son was one of Ben's students, and he benefitted greatly from this good man and his support.r
I greatly regret his untimely passing.

Mr. Shaver was my Business Marketing teacher during my senior year at Sheldon High School (Class of 1983). He was exceptional at including all of the students in the classroom and bringing a great sense of humor to sometimes dry material such as business law or contract process. His effort of trying to have all participate speaks to his genuine interest in his students learning the material and overall future success. Thank you for the good memories and my condolences to his family.

Bella, I am so sorry for your loss. Yesterday, I went out to the South track and thought about our lives, Micheal and Cooper, and the times we shared (and sometimes laughed) how the direction of our lives were going. My heart goes out to you.

Mr. Shaver was one of my more memorable teachers at Sheldon. When I took his marketing class he made it fun and engaging with his great sense of humor and clear knowledge of the subject. Thank you Mr. Shaver for such nice memories.
