Ben will be remembered for many things; his friendship, his membership on the YAG core team, his participation in Small Church Community (SCC), and his ability to organize retreats and camping trips. He was a real blessing to the UCSD community....



“He was just a true seeker,” said Dominican Father John Paul Forte, director of the UCSD Newman Center.

 “Ben's love of ideas permeated into all aspects of his life,” added his mother. He “loved discussing ideas of philosophers, economists, scientists … as they applied in the real-world situations he had been in with his travels.”
