We met Ben when we sold him our home. He was so friendly. He welcomed us out to the lake any time, and we knew he truly meant it. When I attended Mark and Sheila's wedding in my husband's absence, my introverted self was a bit apprehensive. Ben took me right in and sat me between he and James. I never felt awkward and had a great time. We didn't get to know him for very long, but he truly had a big heart.
