Condolences

Condolence From: Ghary Bowlin
Condolence: The life story that was written for Benjamin and published as an obituary in the Daytona News-Journal, was so inspiring and moving, that I cut it out of the newspaper to save, re-read and share. I didn't know Ben or his family, so I was drawn to the love and wisdom contained in the obituary. It reminded me of many people, including myself and the way one approaches life in general. I want to genuinely thank the people who took the time to create such a unique and moving tribute to someone they loved. It's honesty makes it a delicate work of art. The poem by Charles Aznavour speaks to my Soul. As dark and self-deprecating as it is, there is an Angelic Silver Thread weaved into it's meaning. Thank you for sharing it. Thank you for inspiring me. You're family is so blessed.

Condolence From: Andrea & Larry Frank
Condolence: Benjamin's family, Thank you for sharing Ben's story. When I saw it in the NJ, I was interested because he was young and I could tell from the length that most likely much care and love went into writing the words. It is more thoughtful than sad. I don't know your family but shared this with my husband because I thought it was a beautiful remembrance of someone really loved by his family. Larry took the time to read it and then told me that he went to school with Lela...Seabreeze HS Class of '66. Once again, thank you for sharing your love for you brother. I don't think I need to wish you peace...it seems like you have found it. a&l frank
