Dear
Bowen family, your story is very touching. It's wonderful that you are
helping so many people in your time of need. So many people don't
appreciate life or even the lives of their children. Thank God for
people like you. Thank God for Ben. I also believe that the bracelets
are a great idea for Ben and ST.JUDES. I am a mother of a son with a
complicated health problem. My son means the world to me. I am very sure
your children know what they mean to you. God Bless you all. You are in
my prayers.

My
deepest sorry for your loss. It is a blessing to know that Big Ben is
being held in the hands of the Lord in Heaven, nolonger in pain.
Although I know this is a comfort for you, it does not make it easy for
you. Big Ben has forever enriched and changed my life as your entire
family has. I will light a candle in Ben's memory this evening and to
send you strength. God Bless you all.

Dear Tom
& Jennifer~ I am so sorry for your loss. I have been checking on Ben
daily for some time now. I so much wanted him to be free of pain and
peaceful but my heart hurts knowing he is really gone. I pray for peace,
comfort and support for your family right now. Words cannot properly
express my sorrow. Ben has touched so many lives and truly leaves behind
a extraordinary legacy of love, strength, and admiration. I have learned
many things from children like Ben and Allie Scott, number one, never
take your children for granted-ever. Number two, it amazes me how many
wonderful people, strangers at that, can come together for the sake of a
child. Warms my heart to know there are such compassionate people in the
word. Bless you all~My Deepest sympathies~

Tom and
Jennifer - My heart aches for your family in this time of pain. May He
give you the strength to start healing. I came to know of Ben's story
while visiting Allie Scott's page. I visit her page every day and when I
saw Jenny mention Ben, I had to get to know him as well. You are both an
inspiration to me to be a better mother to my kids. Eli sounds like a
wonderful little boy. Prayers will be said tonight in honor of your
family. Thinking of you, Jennifer

Fly high,
sweet Big Ben! If all humans showed the courage, strength and faith that
you and your family did, the world would be a blessed place. You have
made your place in the hearts of so many and your life will make a
difference for years to come. Thank you Bowen family for sharing your
amazing son with the world.

I can't
even think of the appropriate words to tell you how very, very sorry I
am for your loss. However, I am so happy for Ben because all of the pain
that he has endured is now behind him. I can only imagine the BIG
welcome he received when he arrived at Heaven. I know Hannah was there
waiting for him. I will continue to pray for you and check your site
daily. I will NEVER forget Ben!

Dear
Bowen Family, My heart is heavy for you tonight. I can see Ben running
into the arms of Jesus. He picks him up and brings him through the gates
of heaven. There is a beautiful little girl standing there with a pink
balloon with Mickey Mouse ears. She says to Ben "look what your brother
sent to me". I know the days ahead will be difficult. Draw strength and
comfort from knowing how much this little boy has touched so many lives.
My deepest and heartfelt sympathy. Thank you for sharing your son with
us. God bless.
