Bradford Peck wrote a sympathy message

“My thoughts and prayers for Ben and his family. I grew up on Peaks Island and Ben is always a role model for those of my age back in. the early and late fifties. My mother, Betty Peck (Beane) worked with Ben for Cumberland County back in the sixties. Ben was a thoughtful and serious person of whom my mother spoke highly. It was a pleasure speaking with Ben about old Peaks Island times on occasions of breakfast reunions at IHOP near the Maine Mall. Condolences to Ben's family and many friends”

judy potter wrote a sympathy message

“I have known Ben both as a sheriff, a bailiff, and as the husband of one good lawyer. Back in the day not many women were in the courts or jail practicing criminal law. He always made me feel safe and welcome whether in the Portland court or the Cumberland County Jail. When he retired, it was a loss to the criminal justice and court institutions. Judy Potter”
