"Machatunim": Ben taught me that Yiddish word, told me that Machatunim was what we were, and so we were for the next quarter of a century and more. All his friends loved him for his stories, jokes, charm and humanity. I was doubly blessed to share with him Jonathan, Suzy, Rachel, Zachary and Sarah, and together we told each other how proud we were of them. I will miss Ben, my Machatun.
