Chief Ben Souders conducted the fire dept entrance oral exam that I was hired from in 1970.  He gave me the opportunity to work for one of the "Best" fire departments in the country.  He was always a role model for me.  Thank you for your service and your friendship.  Terry Harbour

Rest in Peace Benny!!

Captain Thomas F. Stewart (RET) Family

I really enjoyed the Hilton Head trip in 1994 with Ben, Joan, and Jim. Played some great courses and dined at some great restaurants. Always enjoyed his dinner conversation on a variety of subject matters. He was very informed about politics and sports. God bless his soul.

Patti and I had lots of great times with Ben and Joan. It was an honor working with Ben on the L.B.F.D. Ben brought back the red Fire Apparatus from the ugly lime yellow,to the cheers of all firefighters. I served with Ben on the Red Cross Board for more than 20 years, Worked with him when he was Board Chair and when he served as a representative of the region for Blood services. We will all miss him.
