Rest in peace Devon Ben. I did not know you well personally but you were the deacon for my son’s funeral and that meant the world to me. You will be missed dearly.
Awe Ben, what can I say? You were such an inspiration to all of us at Sacred Heart. We looked forward to hearing the word through you, You were a genuinely great man. Your love of the word and kindness to all of us will be sorely missed! Until we meet again may you rest in the arms of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ! My sincere condolences to Mandy and son’s.
Leon and Phillys Vercauteren will miss Deacon Ben and his kindness. We always was glad to see him and Mandy. We like to talk to them and taking things for the special projects that they were having. May Ben rest in peace. He and his family are in our prayers.
Always always a kind word, a beautiful smile, and a glitter in his eye when he spoke. God chooses the best. May he rest in peace; now safe in the arms of our Lord.
Deacon Ben was such a beautiful person. Always had a great smile for everyone. We enjoyed our Chosen movies and the discussions afterwards. Always made us feel welcomed and loved. He was always kidding with us. Never forget the bronco bracelets Deacon Ben and Mandy gave us. Rest in peace we love you.
My deepest sympathies to his family, friends, and parishioners. Rest in Peace Deacon Ben.
When we say “Yes’ to God, God invites us to be with him. Rest in Peace brother DEACON BEN.
So many memories, but I believe one of my favorite was looking at the beautiful handmade crucifixes that he had been making as gifts — all while battling with cancer. This is simply who he was, a man who served and thought of others. Thank you for your courage, your joy and your faith! May your soul, in the mercy of God, rest in peace.
Deacon Ben was so kind and always had a warm smile to greet you on Sunday morning. God Bless his beautiful soul 🙏🏻💕🙏🏻
Deacon Ben will be missed by all who knew him. He was always very pleasant and caring to all those around him. He always had a smile and a warm welcome for us. May he now rest in God’s peace.
Deacon Ben was a kind soul he meant a lot to me and Nikki he is like family to us he will be greatly missed there is no words what he meant to us rest in peace we love you always Larry and nikki
Ben, you were the best. Thank you for being a deacon at the Cathedral while I was there. You are a real inspiration to me. I know that you can appreciate these words.
Bob and I enjoyed his outgoing and kind nature. His smile and sense of humor was treasured not only by us but others as well.
He will be remembered for his down to earth sermons to us “Guys” and one especially in which the congregation applauded after he was done. Somehow, we knew it took a great deal of strength to stand up and speak for ten minutes.
God bless Mandy and his family for their strength and humor throughout Deacon Ben’s illness.
We pray for peace for Ben and his family.
So sorry to hear of Ben passing.
Knew him from St. Joseph parish. He was a teacher for one of my sons. He was such a kind man. Will miss him very much. Always looked forward to seeing him at the church or out and about.
May he rest in peace and be in the light of god. Heart felt sorry for his family.
There are not words enough to say what Deacon Ben meant to me and Will. He was a man that had a huge smile, a huge heart, and a huge love, that shined in his eyes… enough love for everyone. I teased him so much and he alway gave it right back to me… I loved his sense of humor!
He will be remembered always and forever deeply missed.
My heartfelt sympathy to Mandy, his sons and his family.
RIP Ben.
Ben was such a kind man. Gentle, welcoming and patient with new comers. I enjoyed working with him as Sacristan at the cathedral. I always learned from his homilies. May he rest in peace.
