Rest In Peace, Ben. You were my teacher at Joseph Stilwell when it was a junior high school, my mentor when I became a teacher at the same school, and a good friend. You were an inspiration to me at different times in my life, and that is the part I will miss the most. Thank you.

Rest in Paradise,Mr Gundlach. So sad to hear of your passing. You were my history teacher at Jeff Davis and you always made me sit in front so I could focus and because of that I passed. Thank you. Casey T

I will remember Ben as a Gentle Man, who was a very active in many endeavors. A lot of things that I was not aware of until the Memorial Service at St. Andrews Presbyterian Church Sunday and I had known Ben since 2005. I am so blessed to have known Ben Gundlach. I know he is rejoicing
with the Lord without the pain he was suffering in his last days!!! Praise the Lord!!!
