Dr. Paul M. Benson

Kate:

Nana and I are very sorry to hear about loosing Paul. Paul was a good friend at the Academy and a great person generally -- I look back very fondly of our time together in college and our friendship. Our thoughts and prayers are with you and the boys.

- With deepest sympathies,

Chuck and Nana Wallace

I was so sorry to hear of your loss. The thoughts of many are with you at this time of sorrow. During the short time I was his patient, he spoke of his sons so often - a very proud Daddy!! May your family have great memories to carry you through this difficult time.

Kate,

I am so very sorry to hear about Paul. We began BCT together on 29 Jun 1982 (how could we all not forget that first morning?) and since we both came from the Northeast, we had an instant connection.

Jodi and I will keep you in our thoughts and prayers. Please know that despite the miles that separate all of us, your AFA family cares deeply for you and the boys.

May God grant you peace, comfort and great support from your friends during this time.

Kate, our deepest condolences. Seems like our time together in Colorado and Oklahoma was just a few years ago, and I even find it hard to believe it's been well over a year since we saw you both at our 20th in C-Springs. Grace & peace to you, your sons, family and community in this tragic time.

Kate,

Like everyone, I am shocked and deeply saddened by Paul's passing. You and the boys are in our thoughts and prayers. May Paul rest in Peace.

Love,
Michael & Susan Mercier

Dear Benson Family,

It is with great sadness to hear about your loss. We knew Paul since he was a young boy growing up on Dexter Street. What wonderful memories we have. Paul will be sorely missed. Please accept our deepest sympathy.

Katie,
Even though our families have been separated by time and distance, the memories of you and Paul when we were younger in Louisiana will always be there. We were deeply saddened this morning to hear about Paul. We pray that you can find comfort and want you to know that you are in our thoughts and prayers and will be for a long time.

Our love and sympathy.

I was very sorry to hear of your loss. I grew up with Paul in Peabody and he was a wonderful person. He was always fun, bright, kind, compassionate and a true friend. We had some wonderful times together. He will be greatly missed. I hope that your memories of him will help to ease the pain of your loss.

Dear Family & Friends,
please accept our deepest sympathy. Paul touched many hearts and was a beautiful kind person. We had a special relationship that I will always treasure and remember. Our thoughts and prayers are with his whole family and I hope we can all be grateful for the short time we were able to have Paul in our lives. I know his memory will live on because of the beautiful way he touched my life and the many people around him.
With Deepest Sympathy,

My heart is heavy with sadness, for both Dr. Benson and those he leaves behind. He is a man I will never forget, and a doctor who's gentleness and caring I doubt can be matched.

Dear Kate--It is difficult to find the right thing to say at such a sad time. I watched Paul grow and achieve so much in his short life. May his memories surround you with strength and love. We are all better for having known Paul. Find comfort in knowing that he is at peace.
With Deepest Sympathy Pat Pasquale
