    Ben was a pleasure to have in class and well remembered for making all of us smile. He contributed gentle kindness to his friends and family members even when he was not well himself. Taken too soon, and we are at a loss because of it. Blessings to the family and prayers for your healing and strength.

    The Lord is merciful and sees our suffering. He prepares mansions for our homecoming. Ben has witnessed just the “beginnings” of the beauty of Heaven! He is HOME. The Angels were there to usher him in. How glorious will be the day… when we all unite with our lost loved ones. Never again, to say “goodbye”. May God comfort all.

    Dear Bahr Family,
    I am so sorry for your loss. May you find a measure of comfort in knowing that Kyle is resting peacefully. Thank you for sharing the memories of his life with us. Your words and photos show that he was loved by many. Soon Kyle will be raised to life in paradise where he will again be free to enjoy his hobbies and the company of family and friends as promised at Psalms 37:11-“But the meek will possess the earth, and they will find their exquisite delight in the abundance of peace”.”-May you have peace.
