When I saw this headline on the Message Board, my first thought was..... Holy S.... Moley! Oh no, not another one. Dang it Ben. His sense of humor sure did tickle my funny bones. Peggy

Benny...one of the first i chatted with here, some 4 years ago., God Bless., my friend...and that peace is upon you.. To CowboyBen's family, we loved him here, he was a delight, and always...brought a true smile to our faces.. There are those few from Arizona, that we all dearly care for.. Karen A/K/A Wilds

Ben You will be missed. My thougths are with those that you have left behind. Enjoy the great ranch in the sky!!!! ararefind

Ben.....just saw you last Saturday nite....told you I would keep you in my prayers and I did. I prayed for you to have peace and the love of family surrounding you. I know your in a better place, my love and prayers to your family and those who were close to you. You were such a good friend to so many! Wendy

I sit here in shock.. I , like so many others that have been on this site for years will miss Ben.. He was just a great cowboy, in life as well on here. His pranks, his gentleness(yes he had that side). Ben, I will miss you my friend and know that you will be in great company. My prayers goes to his sons and Kathie. Wanda

I remember coming into chat years ago, to find the room all stirred up by a fiesty cowboy's sense of humor...and usually it was Ben at the bottom of the pile. As much a delight in person as in the chat room, you always knew exactly where he stood, and where you stood with him. Ben, you will be sorely missed, and a high mark to live up to :) Kathie and family...my prayers and heart go out to you at this time. Marney

My condolences to Kathie, family and friends. Godspeed, Ben :) Sylvia

I will miss you, my "BennieThePooh" and your quirky, but delicious sense of humor, your off color jokes, not to mention your x- rated emails and nekkid hot-tubbin' scenarios in ES chat. You always made me laugh and I will treasure that gift forever. Peace, my friend.
