My sincere condolences, Ben was a long time ago childhood friend to both me and my brother Vincent. We spent many hours running around in Shark River Park catching tadpoles and climbing trees like all kids loved to do. I recently lost my brother Vincent and Ben kindly reached to me often to just say hello and a smile. You’ll be missed.

This has been the worst day of my life, my first born son has left this world to go home to father GOD. I can’t begin to tell you what a wonderful son and person he was. He was always there for his friends and family plus anyone who needed a helping hand. He would call me everyday and night to make sure I was ok and see if I needed anything. I will never be out of my mind and thoughts. Your life was a blessing to every one who knew you. Your memory will be my treasure. I love you son and the many years we had together, and I’m so glad you found you soulmate in Melinda she
was the love of your life and you were hers. Not many people find that in there life time. I know there are so many people that you touched their life. I know where you are and who your with, thank you Jesus. Please know that I will be the one now checking on you in prayer.

I was shocked to hear of your passing. I knew you when you were a small boy. I’ll always remember that smile of yours. May you be at peace with God and rest in peace. My thoughts are with your family and especially your mom, Sharon.

Ben was a childhood friend and we reconnected a few years ago. We shared a common love for great music and I enjoyed our conversations recommending new music to each other. Ben was a great dude and this place was definitely better with him in it. My prayers go out to Nicholas, Chris, and to the rest of his family and loved ones. R.I.P. my brother.

My sweet and loving nephew, I was blessed to have you in my daily life! You were always there to help me whenever needed. You had a way about you that lit up a room when you entered. Never knowing a stranger. A beautiful soul, a kind heart for all that knew you. Your love of music and movies, whether it was the lyrics or famous one liners you remembered them all. You will be truly missed by all. I love you now and always. You will never be forgotten. Until we meet again ♥️

You are missed and loved by so many. I will never forget the times we had as kids growing up together and working together with my father.

My thoughts, prayers, and condolences go out to Ben’s entire family.
