I worked with Ben at Boulevard and Ogontz Districts during his time with the state. He was always a class act and good friend who enjoyed his life. I was sorry to hear about his passing but know that he is in a good place. My sympathies go out to his family but know that he will always be part of you and with you in some way.

I met Ben at the "old" Boulevard CAO where he was the chief steward for S.E.I.U 668 (PA Social Services Union). He fought for the folks he represented. It was a pleasure working with him. Sorry for your loss.

I will truly miss my brother-in -law Ben. I have always enjoyed talking with him. Ben was never lost for words and always asked how our family is doing in CA. I always knew Ben was taking care of my sister along with cooking great meals!!!! My prayers go out to my beautiful sister, Janet and her family along with Ben's family. Love you Janet. MaryAnn

We will miss our Brother in Law Ben and are deeply saddened by his passing. Our love and prayers go out to our sister, Ben's wife, Janet and to all of his children and grandchildren. Ben never was too busy to chat when we would call from So. Calif. He loved to talk and was always so interested in how things were in our lives. He made us feel so welcome in their home as well. We will miss our Brother in Law Ben. With deepest regrets, John and Terry D'Amato
