Ben was born in the Bronx, New York on April 19th, 1952. At the age of 28, this Italian Stallion made his way to Dallas, Texas in 1980 where he would reside for the next 40 years; growing his family, relationships, and operating a successful trucking business of over 30 years, Y-Wait Express.
It was an honor to know Ben and to be graced by his presence. He loved his family and friends unconditionally and never let a day lapse without letting them know.
Ben lived a wonderful and rewarding life – filled with many experiences, adventures, laughter, and love. He will be deeply missed by all who knew him.
Ben is survived by his wife, Melinda; his children Tara, Erika, John, Nicky Joe, Ricky, and Josh; his son-in- law, Nick Harrison; and his grandchildren, Aaliyah, Brody, Kadence, and Ava.
May the Lord Bless You and Keep You, Ben. We love you so much.
