My deepest sympathy to the Baskin family. I grew up in a neighborhood where people watched out for you and helped one another. My family lived across the alley from the Baskin family and they were great neighbors. Bennie will be missed.

So many of us still at Linde (Praxair) worked with Bennie for many years. We have all been reminiscing today about what a great guy he was to work with. He was a hard-working guy who was also a lot of fun. I'm sorry he's gone from this world, but I am very happy to have known him!!
