Ben, my brother and friend. Every year when this time comes around, Rosie reminds us to remember you - should we forget. We remember you and smile because of the good memories of you. You are dearly missed.

Keep smiling on us … keep interceding for us … we see your caring heart in the faces of the over 100 children receiving free education at BAT memorial schools. On this day, we re-affirm our commitment to keep driving your legacy in the lives of underserved women and children.

Ben, My family and I remember you today as always. Thanks to you, I got the opportunity to strive after retirement. I will forever be grateful for your facilitating my coming to UNICEF. I know Ben, as it was with men, so it is with the angels. Your legacy lives on Amen

Keep resting in the Lord, your legacy lives on.

Dear friends, family, and supporters,

We want to take a moment to express my deepest gratitude to each and every one of you for your unwavering support in every aspect of our journey here at Shise and Ageba’s Children’s Foundation (SACF). Your spiritual guidance, emotional encouragement, physical assistance, and financial contributions have been invaluable to me, and my brother and I are truly grateful for your generosity and kindness.

We are especially grateful to those of you who have been instrumental in keeping my beloved father’s memory and legacy alive. Your dedication to supporting "The Benedict Alagh Terkula (BAT) Memorial School," where 250 children receive full scholarships through our foundation is nothing short of inspiring. Your commitment to education and empowerment is changing lives and shaping futures, creating a future for these children who up till now could not get access to good education, and we are so thankful for your efforts.

Thank you for your continued love, support, and belief in our mission. May GOD continue to bless each and every single one of your families.

With heartfelt appreciation,

Shise and Ageba Alagh.

Ben Continue to Rest in Peace. You can never be forgotten by your friends and Family.
Roseline, Shise and Ageba continue to make your memory and your lagacy beautiful

Angel Ben! There is no need to ask how you're getting on with those other celestial beings in whose company you've been these past twelve years (how time flies!); I trust its been awesome for you. On this terrestrial side, we continue with thanks to God for the privilege of having known you. We thank Him for the Grace that He has provided for your darling Roselyn, and your dazzlingly brilliant children Shise and Ageba, who have kept the flag of your enviable legacies flying. We love and miss you. We cherish the beautiful memories of you today as always. The way you talked, smiled, laughed, even the way you spoke with zeal and passion about our nation Nigeria, and above all, your love for God, and for your immediate and extended families, (biological and otherwise) etc...all permanently etched on the tablets of our minds. Continue to rest in the bosom of The Almighty, beloved Ben. Rest in perfect peace.

Thank you Father for all that you are to us. Thank you for giving my darling sister, Roselyn, and my sweet children, Shise and Ageba the grace and strength to forge ahead and do exploits for you. Thank you for my brother that you called to be with you, I know that we will understand it better by and by. May the name of the Lord be magnified Jesus' name. Amen. Ibilola

Continue to rest in the bosom of the Lord, Ben. Your memories are cherished and the impact of your labour a testimony.

Rest well Ben
I can’t believe it’s been this long.

Ben, your life was exemplary and still resonates with us. Continue to rest at the Master's feet. We love and miss you.

Ben remains markable to us. BAT memorial schools Agedam Gboko Benue state Nigeria remains a positive mark that Ben has Left in the lives of thousand's of youth.. indeed. By saving children Ben has saved humanity entirely. We're forever proud of you Dr Ben

Ben was a young man with great determination. A very focused and ambitious person with foresight. One who loved his family. His special love for the children to develop fully in spirit, moral and Christian values is a legacy I pray that God will bring it to pass on Shise and Agaba. May they exceed what their father wished for them. May his memory stirr the right spirt in the family and friends, amen

Memories will never wash away the lives. You have put smiles on many faces like me and other will remain in our heart for ever to remember you every day . It's just like yesterday.  I celebrate you we miss you dearly, and love you.

Always in mind boss and mentor. Rest on!

In loving memory of a dear friend and brother,

Twelve years have passed since you left my world, yet your spirit remains eternally alive in my heart. Today, I write not to mourn the loss, but to celebrate the beautiful tapestry of memories you gifted me.

Your laughter echoed joy, your kindness touched souls, and your friendship was a beacon of warmth. Through the years, your absence has been felt, but so too has the enduring impact of your presence.

As I reflect on the times we shared, I am reminded of the lessons you taught me – to embrace life with passion, to cherish every moment, and to be a source of light for others. Your legacy lives on in the stories we tell, the traditions we uphold, and the love that continues to bind us.

Though you are physically distant, the bond we share transcends the boundaries of time and space. Today, I honor you with gratitude for the indelible mark you left on my live. In my heart, you remain a cherished friend and brother, a guiding star in the vastness of my memories.

Rest peacefully, dear friend. Your spirit is forever embedded in the fabric of my lives.

…… going through your memorial page today 10th March, the song on the background, “YOU ARE THE LIVING GOD, There’s no one like YOU”. Gave me peace because GOD ALMIGHTY used you to touch lives. HE KNOWS BEST.

The Children in BAT memorial schools are blessed to have GOD watching over them because you planted good seeds.

Rest in Peace Angel Ben.

Men are remembered by their works.. BAT memorial schools remains a strong reference to Dr Ben. Forever remembered

Dad, you were truly a great man. Though I never really got to talk to you, I think you were a kind and loving man. I miss you

- Ageba

In loving memory and forever in our hearts dad. ❤️️
Your legacy lives on and recently marked a year of giving back through nurturing our futures leaders.

BT Alagh, Rest on in the bosom of the Lord, my friend.

Ben!

Another year has passed by, and memories of you have continued.

I may have said it here before, and I say it again; the most 'ordinary', everyday things regularly remind me of you. An airplane in the sky (and Kaduna Airport where you once worked!), a song on the radio (from Tracy Chapman's 'Baby Can I Hold You', to Handel's Halleluiah Chorus), Nigeria's Independence Day anniversary (you loved Nigeria with a deep passion, and did all that you could to contribute to her progress and prosperity. I am so glad and thankful to God to see these qualities of selflessness and generosity of spirit continually being expressed through Shise, Ageba and your jewel, Roselyn).

It is pleasant to remember your easy smile. Your generosity. Your gentle spirit. Your deep intellect. Your friendliness.

We will continue to remember you.

Rest on in perfect peace Ben.

Dearest Angel Ben, see you smiling at that name. 11 years has passed so swiftly and You continue to live in our hearts . You live on in Shise, Ageba, the rest of the family and over a 100 children on scholarship in Benedict Alagh Terkula international memorial schools. Hmmmm you continue to touch lives my darling.

Hello Dad,how are you doing in heaven? I hope you are doing well. I just want you to know that I love you so much and I miss you. GOD bless your soul.

Dear Daddy;

It’s been what, eleven or twelve years since you died? I miss you so much and I hope you know that we are okay now. I really wish you were here with us, but you had greater things to do in heaven. Fly high dad.

- Shise Alagh

I miss you so so much Dad. Keep Resting in God's Bossom.

You are forever missed Sir, your legacy lives on. Those who knew you and those of us who never got to meet you but we heard so many wonderful stories of you, are forever in awe of the exemplary life you led. Rest in power Sir!

-Stephany

It has been eleven years since you transited to glory, me and my children were to watch Beckett yesterday but we changed our mind and watched a man of all seasons instead and differed it for today not knowing it will coincides with your death anniversary.
Beckett happens to be our favourite movie. We have watched it over and over again. I have never brought myself to watch it since your demise until today because I want my children to learn the lessons in the movie.
It brought back alot of memories. Rest on my brother and friend, you are truly missed.

You live on in the smiles and happiness of the over 100 children enjoying free education because of your heroic service to humanity…. 

Times move fast. It’s been 11 years that the curtain was drawn on your sojourn here. But you live on - in our memories and in your legacies. You’re remembered always!

While you celebrate in heaven in the midst of angels, we have fond memories of your good deeds to humanity here.

Happy post humous birthday my Oga!
Iyobs

Happy Birthday daddy. I wish that you have the best birthday ever in heaven. Ageba and I miss you so much. Have fun!

Shise

A happy posthumous birthday my brother and friend. I really missed you and I wish I can talk to you as prepare for retirement. Forever missed.

Dear Ben,
How time flies. Today we would have been another opportunity to clink glasses on your birthday. However, I know you are in a place where there is no measure of time, and every day is celebrated with a chant to the one who sits on the throne and rules over the affairs of men. Ben continue to rest in peace, Amen

Happy Birthday Dad. I know you are in a better Place watching over us. I miss you so much.

Happy Birthday my HERO

Hello Angel Terkula. Today marks another milestone. You may not be here to celebrate with us but we had plenty happy memories to fill the empty void your absence created. Keep smiling and making the Heavenly audience laugh at your Oscar wining Jokes.
Till we meet my love, Keep praying us down here.

You will continue to be remembered, Ben. And today is another day to highlight that. I trust you are having a ball with the angels today to mark the remembrance of that day you physically entered into the earthly realm, reminiscing on it all with that smile of yours!
Continue to rest in perfect peace Ben.

It's the 11th of March and ceaselessly, Time marches on…

Already, you are in the 11th year of your life on the other side.

So, you live on, there. But even in this realm, we continue to remember you. Your life continues in the memories you created during your sojourn here. The memories others, including me, retain in the closest, dearest, and most cherished parts of our beings - our hearts, souls, and minds. Those bits of us that will last and outlast the mortal components of who we are.

Your lights shine on and Shise and Ageba are True Torchbearers. They so admirably hold aloft the brilliant, bellowing brightness of the light of you. And so does Radiant Roselyn, your Precious Amazon. They are indeed the worthiest of your worthy legacies.

The heart still aches, even after all this time. But also, the heart smiles.
So, each time I hear some music that reminds me of you, I will smile, whistle, snap my fingers, and maybe do a little dance. I will remember you with a smile. And I will thank God for you and the privilege to have known you.

It's the 11th of March, and relentlessly, on marches Time…

It’s 10yrs gone, yet seems like yesterday. It’s always difficult to think you’re not with us because your impact still speaks and off course your children and and wife have ensured this remains so.
On this day and always I remember you boss, mentor and friend. Continue to Rest In Peace.

You were an uncle like no other,
Sometimes I'd have vivid recollections
of your wise counsel and unbiased encouragement.
Those were jewels you shared before your great
transition.
God bless your beautiful soul.

We will have been celebrating your 52nd birthday today my friend and brother, but alas God called you to be with Him. The years have gone by but your memories are ever fresh. I missed your your sense of humour, your down to earth nature etc. Rest on my friend.

On this day, God sent me a baby brother who became a father and an Angel to me and many. I missed you very much but I know we will meet someday; when and where we will part no more. May God Almighty rest your soul!

It is with fondness that I always remember Ben. He was always a pleasure to be around. He loved and served humanity without reservation.
He may no longer be with us physically, but his legacy lives on.
