Ben Mock 101 it is a sad day

[Trail Blazer]

You'll my remember me talking of Ben Mock 101 years old. still rode a trike and drove his car. well Ben died yesterday. he had had hart trouble sense he was in his 20s I understand. I tried to have a meet and greet for Ben but the big rains cams an most folks was under water. was not many came but we had fun. Ben was in rear form. telling stories of back in the 20s and him riding a 1 lounger with leather helmet and wide kidney belt and the wide handle bars. the way he told it you could just see him all bent over and running 20 mph.
it was strange I told Darlene Sunday I need to call Ben ( had not talk to him in a while ) he goes to church so I waited and was going to call today ( he sleep late 12 or 1 pm and I got word of his passing about 11:30 am.
Darlene and I will be going to the service ( no info yet )

ps Ben was a one of a kind and will be missed

Rest in peace, Ben Mock. You have been an inspiration to many folks throughout your life and probably still will be. Sleep well ...

Reaching the age of 101 is inspiring and a feat that very few manage, especially remaining active to the end. I'm sure he inspired all who had the privilege of sharing time and experiences in his company. R.I.P. time master.
