Dear Andrea
Love and blessings to you all.
God has welcomed an angel to heaven.
Your Mom was so special to me. She welcomed me to England and took me under her wing.
I enjoyed our years of teaching together and visiting with her. I respected your Dad and enjoyed his paper. He and your Mom were very proud of you.
Andi,
I am sorry for your loss. I have thought of Buddy Ben many times. I have worked 40 years with special needs children and adults. Buddy Ben was a big reason I chose this field. May he rest in peace.
Randy
Andi, you and your family are in our thoughts and prayers. Mother and I were talking about the time we lived behind your folks and we would see Buddy Ben. What a blessing to know he is in heaven.
We were thinking about you all yesterday. Heard the service was lovely. Love and Prayers, Erik, Keri, Allyson & Daniel
Andrea, so sorry to hear about Buddy Ben. Love seeing his sweet picture, just the way we remember him. Your family has always been very special to all of us. We've been out of town for a few days and didn't know until after the service, would love to have been there. Love from all the Hankins family....Pat & Tony
