Ben, was an extraordinary man. I knew him only through Janet, his youngest daughter. I met him several times when Janet and I would be together for the day. So, you see, I couldn't have known him well. He was only the father of my friend!But, through Janet's, Geri's and their sisters, constant stories and news updates, I slowly began to realize just what kind of man they had as a father.Ben was a true family man and loved his girls and son so profoundly. He was a "Man's Man" and down to earth! A no nonsense individual! He was kind to me each time I met him. And I am sure that he was proud of the accomplishments each child of his completed.I know these things because he led an exemplary life. He loved and was loved dearly and I am pleased I was able to meet Ben, the father of my close friend, Janet and good friend, Geri!Peace be with you, Ben, as you reunite with your family on High and enjoy earning your angel wings!Oh, and if I happen to find a stray horseshoe laying around, I will know you missed one toss and just wanted everyone to know you are having the time of your life in your new home!!Peace to you all,Carolyn WilsonFriend of the family
