Have many great memories with Ben in the gym and bodybuilding contest.Rest in peace my friend.

Condolences to the Neislon family. Ben was a great man and a credit to law enforcement.

Ben will be missed!  He was a great guy and a good friend.  Ben was like a big brother to me at work, always offering his presence when a violator was giving me grief.  He had a way of making an uncomfortable situation bearable.  Ben was a gentle giant with a great sense of humor.  You will always be in my thoughts and prayers.

I will miss Ben greatly as I teased him about his many mail deliveries for the hobbies he loved so much. He lived a full life and was a great man of character. I never saw him without a smile. He loved you all so much, and I pray that the many memories you carry within your heart bring comfort to you now and in the many days to come. You remain in my thoughts and prayers.

Since meeting in '78 our paths crossed many times.  I always believed it was your wit, sense of humor, and persona that made you the big man you were.  As always happens in retirement, crossing paths become fewer and farther between; but I will always be blessed that my path crossed yours.  Rest in Peace, my friend.

We enjoyed seeing your love for each other at your anniversary party. May your memories be a joy forever. God bless.

Ben, you will be greatly missed by the Pueblo Central Class of 1966....so glad you ended up in Pueblo where we all became such a close-knit class. I remember being on crutches while we ran around Central track together. Rest in peace....Georgi

Benito is the spanish name for little Ben.  We at the office called him Benito, but Ben was far from little physically and his reputation was larger than life.  He was a good guy. Ron "Q" told the best stories about Ben.

Ben, you were my car partner for many years. I enjoyed working with you. You will be missed by family, fellow Troopers, and friends. It was an honor and a privilege to have known you.  R.I.P brother.

Ben i always enjoyed your sense of humor and your knowledge of the Nepolionic was. It was a pleasure to work with you and to be able to call you my friend.

We will miss you, Uncle Ben! I have many fond memories of the time I spent at your house as a kid. I thank God for your influence. You were a hero in service to our country and to our community. May God bless you with his peace, Aunt Ethel, Eddie, Shannon and Tuffy.

Rest in peace Ben! I remember those days at the Colorado State Fair!
