We have struggled to find the words, but there are no words to express the true sadness and sorrow felt in our family. Ben was a part of our family. He brought joy and laughter to our home very time we saw him. We will always treasure having Ben in our lives, and he will be in our hearts forever. Love, The Calonge Family

Ben was the best friend anyone could have. Whether I needed a good laugh, help with a project, or a friend to lean on during my own hard times, he was there. He was more generous and loyal than anyone else I have ever met, almost to a fault. If there was a door to hold open, a seat to give up, or someone in need of assistance he would be the first man to jump in to help. The world will be a lesser place without him and he will be missed by all those he touched. And I know I will never cease to miss my friend.

When we had moved here eight years ago Ben mowed our lawn. An industrious and hard working young man with a ready smile and wave, he was an intrinsic, welcoming element woven into the fabric of our neighborhood. He will be missed. Our prayers and deepest condolences are with his family and friends during this time of tremendous loss.
