We are so sorry for your loss of Ben. We are thankful that God brought you both into our life. Ben was so special to Gordon when Gordon needed help with a truck for carrying something. He was eager to be of service. When you both visited us in our apartment, before you moved in, we enjoyed hearing about your plans and the love you both had for each other. Your love for the Lord was also very evident. We pray that God will bless you and give you strength in the coming days. Our Love Gordon and Julia
