RIP – Ben

March 24th, 2010

I am shocked by the turn of events. Here is a guy who is full of life and adventurous and writes amazingly well.

I have been a silent lurker, couch surfing his adventure stories and enjoying his witty observations.

I heard he was hit by a drunk driver in the wee hours and has passed away. This is hitting very close to home and I am very saddened.

RIP Ben.

And the rest of you, ride safe. And to all the drivers, please be considerate.

    Albeit I don’t know Benjamin, my sincere condolences to his bereaved family. And let’s all drive and ride safe.

    Tragic! Another precious life gone becoz of a drunk driver. Very sad indeed for the late Ben and esp his family. I hope his friend recovers.
