Benjamin's obituary

Benjamin Robert Goss, 18, passed on to be with the Lord on December 15, 2019. He was born on October 3rd, 2001 in Meadville, Pennsylvania. He was a student and resided in Ponte Vedra, Florida in the Nocatee Community. Benjamin had an infectious smile and immediately touched the hearts and lives of everyone he came in contact. He loved meeting diverse new people of all ages and backgrounds and discussing the ways of the world. He left a lasting positive impression to all! He had exquisite taste due to his extensive international travel to the Caribbean Islands and Central America. Benjamin was a highly intelligent young man and had an enormous love for life. He wanted to conquer as much as he could in this world as fast as he could. He had immense stature and strength in mind and body. Nothing was impossible for Ben. He became a black belt in Tae Kwon Do at the early age of 11. He also enjoyed hiking the Appalachian Trail, boating in the Chesapeake Bay, cruising through the Caribbean Sea, swimming on the beaches in the Caribbean Islands, and spending quality time with loved ones. Benjamin will be greatly missed but never forgotten. It's with heavy hearts we say, until we meet again!
