Craig, Mima & CJ

Uncle Ben was a very sweet man. Though he was a man of few words, you can tell how much he loved his family and especially his grandson AJ. Uncle Ben was kind enough to let me tag along with AJ a few times after school in high school. I still remember him picking us up in his little red car and driving us to Taco Bell for an after school snack. He never let me pay for my food even though I tried and always made me feel welcomed on the rides and into his home. His small gestures of kindness proved what a sweet and loving man he was.

He was very well loved and will be greatly missed. 

My condolence to Gina, Augie, A.J. and the family. I am sorry for your loss. Uncle Ben was a caring , loving father and he would do anything for his daughter. Uncle Ben was always there when Gina needed anything. If Gina needed anything like McDonald's french fries late at night or trips to Great America. Gina and I spent a lot of time together as kids I have so many great memories of Uncle Ben. One of my memories was when Gina got in trouble stealing form a department store and Uncle Ben had to pick us up. Ben was so angry. As adults now Gina and I can laugh at these memories. Uncle Ben I will always remember you as the man in the polo shirts. R.I.P.

Gina, 

I am very sorry for your loss. You loved your father endlessly and the memories you created with him will forever be with you until the end. Just remember he is always with you and guiding you through life. May god give you the strength to get through these unprecedented times.. 

With love,
Gurman and Nina 

Uncle Ben was one of my favorite uncles.  He was my mom's first cousin and he also boarded with my father during college in the Philippines.  Our family has known him in our lives for a long time.  I remember as a child he would visit and sometimes my parents would drive to Stockton to visit and buy goat.  He would spend time and talk to me and do tricks.  He was kind and soft spoken.  When I moved to Stockton in the early 90s, Uncle Ben and Auntie Gina would  always check on me and always offer food.  I remember he lit up when he found out I was moving only a few miles from his house.  We would go golfing together and that was  a precious experience.  I also remember how he would always bring AJ with him and also talk about his daughter Gina.  You knew right away family was the most important thing to him.  
Uncle will be sorely missed.  I sometimes catch myself doing and saying things that he would do and say.  That makes me stop and think how much he has influenced my life.   Uncle Ben , you will always be in our hearts and memories and will never be forgotten.  Love you Uncle.    

The pain of losing a loved one can be unbearable. May you find comfort in the memories you have ! You don’t have to go through this alone! We are also with you. Please accept my deepest condolences! Love you Gina, Augie and AJ . 

Love 
The Santos Family

I wished we had more time to get to know you, but I do have some memories when I was younger...You are greatly loved by many, and you will be missed Uncle Ben.  I pray for God  to blanket the family with peace and comfort at this time.  RIP Uncle Ben🕊️🕊️🕊️🙏🙏🙏✝️✝️✝️🛐🛐🛐

Uncle Ben was the true meaning of “Aloha” His Love for his Family was so Strong...
Uncle Ben’s Family Gina , Augie and A.J. was his Life...
You Folks are what always put a big Smile on his face...
Uncle had also Mastered the Skill of Golf.
He always told me that he was just Lucky.
To me he was the Pro and I was an eager
Student...
For those of you who never knew Uncle had many a hole in one...
He was not a man that bragged about it again he just said that he was just Lucky.
Uncle Ben Mahalo much for the Life lesson‘s you have taught  us all.
“I’ll see you on the back nine”
Much Aloha,Danny

I spent a lot of time with Auntie Gina, Uncle Augie and AJ. Over the years, every single night,  the one thing I always remember was hearing Auntie Gina ask “AJ did you call Papa??” And if he hadn’t already, no matter what we were doing or where we were at, right away AJ would call his Papa. Uncle Ben was loved so much and it was apparent even through these very simple gestures. The care and concern his family had for him could be felt whenever his name was spoken. I’m so sorry for your loss, but I hope you’re comforted knowing that the love you have for him and shared with him will always be with you. He may be gone from this earth, but he is in your hearts forever. His memory lives on through each of you. May you rest in love, Uncle Ben. Praying for you all and keeping you close in my thoughts. We love you. 

May your loving memories  bring you comfort and peace during this time. Your father loved you so much. I remember him always wanting to spend time with you. He was a man of few words, but he definitely showed his love for you and your family.  Rest in God’s love Uncle Ben. 

Love and Blessings~

My wish for you at this time is one of peace and may the memories of all that was shared bring you comfort now and the days ahead.                                     With heartfelt ♥ sympathy to you and your family.  Much L♡VE ❤

It was always nice seeing Uncle Ben at family gatherings. He was a man of few words and had a calming presence. The love between his beloved daughter, Gina, grandson, AJ, and son-in-law, Augustine, was felt by everyone through the stories they shared, their caring gestures, and unspoken words of love expressed in their eyes and smiles towards one another. Rest peacefully Uncle Ben. You will be missed more than you’ll ever know. 

Our prayers and condolences go out to your family at this time. You could not imagine a kinder, gentler man than Ben. He will be dearly missed.

My thoughts and prayers go out to you and your family.  May you find peace and love in the memories you cherish of your dad.  I didn’t know your dad personally but the way you talked about him showed how much you loved him and what he meant to you and your family. May the Lord bless and comfort you and your family during your time of sorrow. ❤️✝️🙏🏼

Thank you uncle Ben for the love,for everything you shared with us...you will be missed & we love you very much!

I miss you!  There are no words to describe how I feel.  You didn’t know why we were not able to see you and I pray that you didn’t think we just abandoned you.  I hate the thought of you being by yourself when you left us.  Please forgive me and know that I didn’t forget you, know how much I love you, and  know how grateful I am for everything you did for us.   I would do anything to see you one last time and tell you this. I love you and wish you were  still with us, but I am comforted knowing that you are no longer suffering.  I will keep the memories in my heart until we meet again.
