Paulette and family,
I am so very sorry for your loss. Ben was a great young man. I still remember the first time he came to our house for Ryan’s birthday. I thought he was a very sweet, funny kid. Keep your memories of him close to your heart. ❤

I am still in shock and disbelief. Ben, you were a great human being with a huge heart, sincerity, and “realness” that is hard to come by these days. My sincerest condolences to Ellie, Paulette, Asslin, and the rest of his family. My thoughts, prayers and love to each of you. Without a doubt, I know Dave was there to greet him with open arms. May God bless him and all of us down here. Love and hugs
