For Ben...

I am so sorry, in the midst of this pandemic, to note the death of a good friend of our extended family, Ben Sorensen. 

Our sympathies go out to his wife, Thelma and to his children, Jakie and Cici. 

He struggled with kidney failure for years, and was very ill this last week or so.  Coming back from a coma he was able to save his wife from having to make a very difficult decision.  He chose to leave the hospital and die a few days later in his own home, surrounded by his family.  He was able to say goodbye to them all. 

We will miss Ben.
