Benjamin Davis Memoriam

In Loving Memory of Benjamin J. V DAVIS 2/17/1967 4/13/2007
Dearest Ben,
It has been three years since you left us very suddenly! There is a void in our lives that won't be filled. Your presence is here with us your smile, your humor and wit, and your love! We have so many memories of you and wish we could do them again with you! There isn't a day that passes that you're not in our thoughts and prayers.
We love you, Ben,
and miss you so very much!
Dad, Mom, Sharoni
Kevin & Melissa

Three years ago, I was wondering what I could say during your eulogy that would honor you...it was easy...you were my big brother, my friend...and I would miss you all of the rest of my days here on earth. I look forward to hanging out with you again, Ben. You were the best.

Today sucks, Ben.... plain and simple....but...
If I take the time to look past what today represents, I can still hear you laughing.
As I sat on my porch today, listening to the birds sing and feeling the breeze on my face, I closed my eyes. I could see your face, and hear your voice. And then it hit me. I could smell your cologne. I knew you were with me.
Ben, we all miss you so much. Someday...oneday...I will see you again! I love you! Always, your little sister, Melissa

July 28, 2007 we had four bridesmaids and three groomsmen.

To my fourth groomsman, I never replaced you because there is no replacing you, Benny.

? I will be watching over you ?
? I am gonna help you see it through ?
? I will protect you in the night ?
? I am smiling next to you...in silent lucidity. ?

God, I miss you, bro.
