Missing him today... Thinking about how he pointed out at the end not to waste any time holding any trace of bitterness, and stop being afraid of doing what is most important to you 'because it is too special'. (and you are afraid you will mess it up) Just do it! He loved the Cat Stevens song "If You Want To Sing out!" and the Muppets Song "If Just One Person Believes in You" Both very inspiring songs. :)

My thoughts and prayers are with the family. God will walk with you all.

I'm so sorry for your loss.

Benji's amazing spirit will truly be missed. He grew from a little boy with a bigger than life imagination to a young man that could light up any room with his smile and energizing personality. You are loved and forever missed! My sympathies go out to Kristen,Izzy,Uncle Ben Aunt Lou Ann, Michaell, Kathy, Jennifer and families.

Nephew, I miss you. The love and light you brought to the world was amazing. You were so much fun when you stayed with us in Florida, inspiring Kent-Erik and challenging him in video games. You were also a comfort to me so many times in my life. You helped launch our company with Patricia, working closely with Derek to create a beautiful website and "look" for Patricia's work. When you were little, I never knew what to expect; you were so much fun, so creative. It was a wonder to watch your mind work. I still can't get over how you comforted me on the phone when you called, and when I came to see you at the hospital in New York in June, once again, I'm in pieces, and you were intent on comforting me. Such a generous spirit, kind heart. Thank you for staying close. It was an honor to be there when you came into the world, when you married the amazing Kristin, and say goodbye at the end of your wonderful life. I just wish we could've held onto you longer.
Love You, Aunt June
