i never got to meet him but i'm sure he would have been a very happy and kind
thank you uncle ben for being such a great person
I am truley very soory to hear the news about Ben. During the period of time that we worked with him at the Gehl Company, he was a joy to be around. His humor and aproach to life was great. One thing that we will truely..truely miss are his emails with subject lines like "Story time with Ben." , " Random,Population, Me". I would laugh from the time that I starting reading them till the end. Once told him that his calling in life was to be a writer of some type. I will miss the emails. Ben talked very highly of his family. Even thou he was not a teacher, he was a gifted person in many ways. My prays are with you during this difficult time. May his memories last forever.
My sympathy to the family of Ben.
I worked with Ben for a short time at Gehl in West Bend. We are all in shock. We all enjoyed Ben's humor. We always enjoyed getting emails from him. He should have been a writer. Our thoughts and prayers go out to his family.
