Memorial Video

(click here)
BEN

I tried to upload the video...it's just too long.  I really wanted to post it on his blog, but you'll have to follow the link over to see it instead.  I promise...you won't be sorry.

Becky the video is amazing. I have watched it a few times and it truly shows the love that surrounded Ben throughout his life and the love that he had for his family.

Becky,
I found your blog about 18 months ago. I had just found out the my youngest had aquired microcephaly and I did a search to find info about it. I have been truly inspired by Ben and your family. My son just turned 3 a couple weeks ago and even though his situation is different, I do understand the emotions and love that comes with raising these special sweet kids. I have kept your family in my prayers and I hope that you will find some peace. I loved the memorial video for Ben and have watched it a couple times. It's hard sometimes to remember that Heavenly Father does have a plan for each of us. I know that personally, but when times get tough I know it's hard to lose sight of that briefly. I am so eternally grateful that you chose to share Ben with those of us who never met him through this blog. It's been very theraputic for me. Good luck with everything!

What a beautiful family that was chosen to be Ben's. He was a lucky little boy. More importantly his family was the lucky ones. I have followed Ben for a couple of years and I have prayed for your family. Everytime he became ill, he fought with all his might. He is dancing with the angels, in a place far better than here. Thank you for sharing your story. He is missed, all of us who didn't know him but loved him anyhow.

Becky, I cried Saturday when I learned Ben had died and again as I watched his video. Your willingness to share him with us all through your blogs was such a blessing for us all. Words can not convey my sadness for you and your family. You are all in my thoughts and prayers. You are an amazing woman and mom and I am honored to say that I know you!
Fondly,
Danica

You're sending me to bed with a crying headache after watching this movie. I'm sure you are all so exhausted from the tears. Hugs and prayers. I just love you all.

Becky it is perfect. I just love it. It truly celebrates the FULL and loving LIFE Ben experienced. You gave him the world and let him live -- not just exist -- LIVE for 8 years. A true miracle. He has touched my life and so have you. Love you Benny.

Such a wonderful, uplifting video. Benjamin certainly was a much loved little boy. It is so nice to see that he was surrounded by so many loving people and out and about enjoying all life has to offer. That's all any of us can ask for!

The world will surely miss Benjamin and all he had to offer us, but I am sure he is testing out his new abilities and has an even brighter smile on his face!
