Maturity beyond his years

I have the fondest and warmest memories of Ben. Seeing Matthew and Ben grow up and mature over the years and have a part in that was an honor.

Ben was so polite, considerate and engaged and always willing to help. No matter what the scenario, Ben was there. He helped solve some bicycle tire issues that I had that even the bike shop could not address.

I always enjoyed having Ben in our midst whether or not I was actively participating with Ben and Matt. He had maturity beyond his years and was a delight to engage in conversation on any topic.

I am so privileged to have had Ben in my life and fortunate that Matt was wise to choose Ben as his best friend.

My deepest condolences,

Ray Schaefer
