Please accept our sincere sympathy, love, and prayers. Ben and Edna was my (Kathy Jones, Harris) neighbor in Moraine and I was friends with Wayne and knew Mike. I was able to meet up again with Tony and Beverly at a wedding a few years ago. I always thought Ben and Edna had a great marriage and an outpouring of love between them. I am so sorry to read in the paper of his passing. Memories, love, and prayers, will help get the family through this and God will never desert you at a time like this. He wants you to lean on Him. I am thankful for the memories of my childhood and thankful for people like all of you.

Sincerely,
John and Kathy Harris
