Condolence: Jason and Travis, please accept my condolences for the loss of your dad. I don't know if you remember me or not, but my family spent a lot of time with your family back when we were kids. I always loved and respected Ben. He was always there for our family. Used to love going out to ya'lls house for get-togethers that often times included singing. I don't remember all the words but one song we often sang was about a "frog on a log in a hole at the bottom of the sea". haha Ben was loved by and will be missed by all. You are in my thoughts and prayers. Terri

Condolence: He was my 7th grade science teacher at Van Buren Middle School the 3rd year open 1981-1982
He let our classmate bring her Ferret Ferret Faucet to class I am sure many children remember having him for Science
My Sympathy to his family friends and former students
May he rest knowing his battle is over and his memories will go on with others
