Comments Ben was a wonderful son. He was sweet and loving, and we enjoyed doing things together. We liked kidding and teasing each other; sometimes he seemed like a younger brother. I miss him more than I can say.

Comments I just finished reading Ben's essays in a attempt to know him better than I did. Although I did not know him well, his memory is always on my mind as someone who in his short time made a differance to many, a positive influence, with saneness and grace.

Comments I don't know how much I really have to say. I was young when I knew Ben. But the moment I heard he had passed I became lost. It seemed strange at the time because it had been years since I had seen Ben. Infact, my last memory of us together was playing with toys, Power Rangers no less. But there was an unexpected weight in my heart that his passing revealed. And I don't think I'll be the same with him gone. Losing him has brought back many memories, but the cost was too much. Ben, As you childhood friend, I pray for you, even though I am far from religious. If there is a heaven I know you are in it. I miss you and wish we had stayed close. Merry Christmas and Happy New Years. This one's for you...

Comments Dear, Dear Jeff and Lisa, I have been thinking of you all week, as Thanksgiving approached and receded, and with it the intense memories of Ben and you both, and of Lauren. Please know that you are in my hearts and prayers, and that for us the memory of Ben is fresh and strong, and the loss still acute. Please do let me know if I can be of any help or support. Ben and you are always in my heart. Please know that I am thinking of you. I would be grateful to receive an email to write you directly, as I hesitate to interrupt by telephoning. Please let me know whenever you are in Baltimore or nearby. With deepest sympathy, Melissa B. Woodward 30 November 2009

Comments Dear Jeff, Lisa and Laurel: I had a dream about you all -- and Ben in the hospital -- a couple of nights ago. I couldnm't shake the sadness of it -- even looking at Ben's smile on this site. I still think of you from time to time -- hoping you're able to propser, even in your loss. I take heart knowing how potently Ben would demand that result -- if he could. You're an incredible family. You've had to be. I'll never forget Ben's memorial and his teammates and you. Gene
