Benjamin Jackson Durst Jr.

Ben was a man who loved life to the fullest. Always a jokester, he wanted everyone to be happy and have a smile. He was an Eagle member who often helped many charities, including Hospice of Michigan. As a truck driver he saw much of the country, but always knew where home was – in Michigan with family. He loved Big Bear Lake in Johannesburg, Michigan where he would ride his quad or swim in the lake for hours. Never afraid to speak his mind, Ben told it like it was, yet he was loved by all. Loved to the moon and back, he is terribly missed. Ben will continue to be loved, for always, until we meet again.
