Just recently heard of Ben's passing and want to send my condolences to Etta and the family. How well I remember the days of the Christmas parades, Police Wives Activities, etc. Those were very special times !! Marilyn Clark
Ben is a wondeful man who will be sorely missed by all who knew him. I enjoyed my breif times with him and he was a vibrant man of inteligence and compassion. And he love attending our Battle of the Badges boxing fundraiser. You were missed at Pechanga kind sir! RIP Ben....Rick Thomsen
Grandpa was a loyal, caring, devoted husband, father, grandfather, great-grandfather, and friend,who loved his family wholeheartedly. Remembering as a child growing up how grandpa was always there to help and be supportive whenever life became challenging. He demonstrated how to work hard for the one's he loved; offering kind words and wisdom. Grandpa enjoyed life and appreciated his family and was proud of his accomplishments. He will be so dearly loved, So sadly missed. God bless. Crystal and Sarah Jessen
