Mr. Benthall holds a special place in my heart. I lived with him on Wallops Island during the summer of 1965. I just learned of his passing.
I am truly sorry.

My prayers to all of Ben's family. Ben was a wonderful friend to me during my time at Wallops Flight Facility in the early 90's when I was newly graduated from college. I have always remembered him fondly and enjoyed seeing you together when I was back in town visiting my family. Your love and devotion to each other was wonderful to witness.

Evelyn, I am so sorry for your loss. Before I lost Nathan, Henen would call to offer help if I needed it. I thought that was so nice of Henen since he was sick himself. I know you miss him so much. Nathan has been gone two months. Sometimes, I still can't believe it. My prayers are with you.

Sorry for your loss. The best friend and source of comfort that a bereaved family can have is our Creator, God. He invite you to throw all your burdens on him and he will sustain you in this time of grief. May you all find comfort as you pour out your heart to him in prayer because he cares for you. (1 Peter 5:7).

Mr. Benthall was such a positive Christian influence in my life growing up in Atlantic United Methodist church. He was a great baseball coach and always had wonderful words of wisdom and kindness to share. Although our lives went different directions later in my teen years, I have always cherished our friendship and the infrequent times our paths have crossed since. Our deepest sympathy to his family.

Ben was a great person that left his mark on this world in many positive ways. I got to know him at Wallops, how he loved to talk, especially about his newest car. We had a great debates over our car purchases. May your wonderful memories be a comfort. I am so sorry for your loss.
