Samuel Benjamin (Ben) Wilks born January 6, 1997.

Ben was a sweet soul who loved his family deeply. He cherished time with his mother, siblings, and close family. Although he didn't have children of his own, he loved his nieces and nephews as if they were his.

He had a tenderness for animals from an early age that remained until he passed. He enjoyed spoiling his beloved pet Bear.

Ben was kind and silly. He knew how to make you laugh. He loved a good sarcastic comment or T- shirt.

Life will not be the same without him, but we know he's safe in the arms of Jesus.
