Aunt Marie,Leslie,Renee and Family,
Prayers from our family to yours. Uncle Ben was always an inspiration for me growing up, His SMILE radiants and I don’t ever think I saw him mad or sad. I remember his red Pontiac GTO he had when he lived at home before he got married, he would let me sit in the driver’s seat. Love you All !
You have my deepest sympathy for your loss. I’m so sorry I didn’t see it sooner.
Rip Uncle Ben! You will be missed. I remember when I was little you coming over to my grandpaps house (John Citones) you always had a smile on your face. You would give my brother and I a big hug and bring candy or give us each a few dollars. I don’t think I ever once saw you upset even when I saw you in my early 20s. I wish the world was as kind as you were. ❤️
