When I heard of Ben's death, I was stunned and heartbroken. A talented artist, a kind and caring soul, a Korducki and a Weitekamp. Our young people face challenges that are beyond our comprehension. Very Recently, our parish community lost a talented artistic young man and we still feel the loss. Ben lives even though he has passed. We will be there to help support your family. And, we will be there to find out what we can do in our parish, community and country to create change. It is time! We love you all! I only have one child, a freshman in high school and I cherish every hug and "I love you," that he shares.

Dear Ben,
You were an amazing friend. You had such a beautiful soul and I'm so happy I met you. You made a difference in my life and many others. I'll never forget when we first met at work, going to the lake and swimming, telling funny stories and secrets on the beach, and my favorite...dancing in front of a huge crowd of people, you twirling me around like a ballerina, just not caring what they thought about us. That's how you lived life. You never judged anyone for anything they did. You will always be in my heart until the end of time.
I'm sorry your family had to lose you so soon.
Be strong.
Love,
Me.
I have treasured this photo since you gifted it to me, Christine. Thank you for this beautiful memory.

Dearest Weitekamps,
My family and I are heartbroken by the loss of Ben. I feel so very fortunate to have had the opportunity to spend six years of his childhood with him in Orchestra. I remember him as a sweet, compassionate and thoughtful young man with a wonderful sense of humor. Chadd and I have such fond memories of the day he and Brady came to our place to fish and Ben fell out of the kayak and into the river.
He has always and will continue to hold a very special and dear place in my heart.
With love to you all,
Kay Black

I sat next to Ben oftentimes throughout middle school and high school when he played the cello and I played the viola in orchestra. We'd grown apart over the years, but I'll always remember him for making me laugh and being an intelligent, thoughtful guy. I can't believe I just ran into him at the WI State Fair last summer and now he's gone. You will be missed; Rest in peace, Ben.
