September 10, 2009

My dear brother it has been 9 months and still I can't believe that you are no longer with us. My heart is happy knowing that you are with God, but that does not change the fact that I truly miss you. As I watched a video on Youtube today I thought of you. You were the first person that I wanted to call so that you to could have a good laugh. It has taken me a long time to write in the guest book because doing it made everything seem so final, and I was not ready to accept that. I am at peace with what has taken place and I know that you will always be close. I love you Ben! I am so glad that God blessed me with a brother like you. Until we meet again. Keep my wings and my golden slippers polish because one day we will be togehter again.

We know not the time or hour when the Lord will call us home. I was deeply sadden to hear about Ben's passing. All I could think about was our families getting together for a walk to Dairy Queen, going downtown to the $1 movie, and growing up during the simple times when life was good in Reynoldstown. Our deepest and sincerest sympathy to you...Ms. Ann, Adrianne and Fe-Fe. Continue to look to the hills from where your strength comes.

My thoughts and prayers are with the Studdard family during this time. I had the pleasure of knowing Ben through working with him in the payroll department. He always made me laugh and always had a smile on his face. He will definitely be missed. To the family: God opened his arms the other morning and wrapped them around his son and gave him eternal rest. He doesn't have to suffer any longer. He can now be pain free. I know this is a difficult time,however, look to the hills from whence cometh your help and you will find God to see you through this.

God Bless
