Three years. Time goes by so fast. I still think about you often and how much has changed. i wish you were here to see me get all my college acceptances like we talked about. I talk to you often. I dedicated my most recent dance solo to you. I got platinum! all the judges loved it. I loved it. I wish you could've seen it. I miss you so much. you're forever my best friend

He cheated on his girlfriend with me for the whole time they were together. He was a drug addict with a kind soul, but lacked direction and ambition.

To whoever gets a chance to read this, me and Ben met in FCFR and he was the first kid I actually connected with. We would walk round the circle during rec and just talk about real shit. He always talked about his grandparents n girlfriend and really wanted to change for the better just for them. I never got a chance to hit him up when I got out because I lost his contact info but I wanna let you know you raised a great kid. It really sucks to see sumone as real as him go so soon. RIP Ben fly high woe❤️

2019, 4 Rivers Smokehouse - UCF Orlando BBQ, University Boulevard, Orlando, FL, USA

I remember him from Family Center for Recovery. We used to joke about stuff together, and me and him had a great relationship for a bit of time. We were both discharged, and I met him at 4 Rivers. He was doing really well, and so was his family. I remember his smile, his long hair, and how he could light up a room. A bit after that, he got readmitted and so did I. The last time I saw him was he was at the rec therapy tables, and all he said was "GarBear! Wassup!" I acknowledged him and said 'How you doin'?" I forgot what was said after that, but all I know was that was the last time I ever saw him. He had a chance to have a long, prosperous life. He was as healthy (physically) as anyone I knew. I had no idea he died until today. Rest in paradise, Ben. I'll pray for him and his family, and I know that more people will too.

I knew ben from FCFR. he was a great person with a lot of potential to be great and do amazing things. we both always said as a joke that i was his little sister and he was my big brother. we both helped each other get through tough times and he always knew the perfect thing to say. i’ll miss ben forever and i’d do anything to say goodbye him or see him one last time. i am so sorry for his family and i wish you all the best.

I was there that night and couldn’t stop thinking about this young man and his family since. I’m so sorry for your loss. From his story he seems like such an incredible person that made an impact on many. I hope your family finds peace and comfort in each other.

Although I have only spent time with Ben a handful of times… I was immediately stuck with how intelligent he was for his age. Even at the age of 5, he easily managed conversations with adults and others. He was so eager to learn and curious about everything. Needless to say, he left a strong impression on me and was very likable.

Over the past 5 or 6 years, I only had a few opportunities to chat via FaceTime or the phone being passed around. But, I was very aware he was growing into a handsome and confident young man. He seemed very excited and happy to be living near the beach and soaking up the sun.

The loss of this young life, is a terrible tragedy which has affected so many around him. I know the days ahead will be hard… but, I am comforted that he lived his life the way he wanted, that he found love, and is now at peace.

This a quote that has been running thru my mind for the past few days… I think it says it all.

“The flame that burns Twice as bright burns half as long.”

― Lao Tzu, Te Tao Ching

I hope all that read this remember Ben’s smile, laugh and amazing sense of curiosity.

All my thoughts and love to Ben’s family and friends,

Alex de Tessieres

Ben,
I wasnt your mama but I was proud of you. I go back to our conversation at Caisyn's party. Your head on my shoulder and me sneaking you pizza to eat lol. You are so loved as I told you that weekend. From the first time I met you when you came to church in NC and wanted to sit beside me at lunch. I instantly loved you!!

You will be so missed!! I know you're looking down now and saying Wow they do love me!!! It will be hard for your family now but no one will forget you!! I can still feel your tight hug you gave me when you left NC in October. I will hang onto that feeling forever!!

My memories of Benny, as we called him, are of a precious baby and then a beautiful young boy. It is comforting to see how he matured into such an accomplished, widely loved and admired young man.
My heart is with Rob and his family.

To never again be able to hug Ben. Your hearts must be shattered. Keep sane by remembering all his mischievousness, the fun times and the joy he brought everyone, while with us mortals.
