    I was so sad to hear of Uncle Ben’s passing. The messages of condolences show just how much he was thought of and loved by his friends and family. It’s hard for me to imagine a visit to Hatchet Cove without going to see Aunt Bessie and Uncle Ben and the conversations I enjoyed with Uncle Ben. With both sadness and happy remembrances, my condolances to Aunt Bessie, Clyde, Roma, and Rod and their families.
