Ben---Gone Too Soon---GRRRRRRR PHOOPIE

Bill and I are still a bit stunned about Ben's untimely death. It's left a little empty space in our hearts. We 'followed' him everyday and his blog was the last one that we read each morning---a save-the-best-for-last situation. We met him a few times and will always remember him as the sweet, generous, gentle man that he was.

We hope to meet some of our fellow bloggers (in addition to Ben's friends and family) this evening at the get-together to exchange memories about good ol' Ben.. . . . . ".An Older Texan Remembered."

It is sad for us who will miss him. But, Ben went mercifully fast, just the way he wanted I believe. Raise a glass (pretend its a wine cooler) to him for me please. Salud Mr.Woods!

I only checked his blog occasionally, but I'll still miss reading it from time to time. I agree with jandean he would have probably wanted to go like that. I'd much prefer to go that way myself.

I agree with both of you.

It is still hard for me to accept his passing.

Glad you guys will be attending.

We ended up not being able to go, but we were thinking about him . . .

Yes, MsB. It's still hard to accept. I keep wanting to open his blog and read about what he's making for dinner :)

I enjoyed his skepticism of the local weatherpeople's forecasts, etc.
