Dale, Sharon and Sam,

I´ve been thinking a lot about Ben and Christeen lately. I am so heart broken that Ben is no longer here. I wish I could travel back in time and be a better friend to him. So sorry for this loss. I want you to know that I think and pray for you often. I know they are together now. Hugs, love and light.
