After learning of Ben's passing today,
when I was in prayer for Ben's soul,
I felt such a sweetness, and a great joy.
May God comfort you in an even greater way.
I came across this music
and found it echoed that same joy and sweetness.

Such a beautiful representation with the crane and although my heart bleeds for the loss of a life that touched so many others, it leaves celebration for a life well lived. Much love to all❤️

All my love, thoughts and prayers to Nikki, the kids and his parents.
I will never forget the smile Ben had when he walked into the office at Trailside and said hello.

My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. I will always remember Ben and his bright smile. He brought so much love and light to Muldoon.

I will forever embrace the memories hiking with Ben and the guys on our Dads' hikes in the mountains around Eagle River and Chugiak. Ben was a tremendous person who will remain in our hearts always.

An unforgettable human. Anyone who knew him is better for it.

What a profound loss. Sending love to the family, and gratitude on behalf of all of us who are better people for having known Ben.

Love and prayers go out your family. We are so sorry and sad. What an amazing man! Hugs to all of you.

Ben will be missed! He was a kind, generous, fun person. He loved life and loved his family. Prayers and love to his family that they will heal and find that Ben is still with them every step of the way!
