I am too sorry to hear of this great loss.I didnt know him but based on the pics he appears to have been full of life,inspiration & happiness.You can tell by his facial expressions that he truly loved this jet hobby.He looks so young to have passed on,Ben how old was he?I hear tragic things like this & it scares me a bit cause so many people take life for granted every day.Many people including myself dont go for annual checkups or if you feel something may be wrong you still dont go to the doctor.This is how my grandmother was which I loved more than life itself,she would never go to the doctors cause she hated them,then she died at the young age of 62.She had a massive heart attack while laying down watching tv.She still had the ash tray on her chest when she passed on.I was glad she atleast went peacefully. This news has opened up my eyes that I need to start eating better & go for a checkup once a year.My dad just got diagnosed with type II diabetes two years ago & has always gotten skin cancer every summer cause he spends so much time out on his boat.I know now I am very prone to get one or the other eventually most likely.Again I am truly sorry for this great loss,my heartfelt condolences go out to his family & may he always look down upon his family & good friends with a big smile.Those of you who were close to him ,I am sure he will be watching you guys fly & smiling still from the heavens above.
