Col Benson was my Battalion Commander at Fort Lewis in 2/77 Armor. He was smart, a good tanker and soldier, and he really cared about his soldiers. He was a great leader and more importantly, a great person.

Fred was my high school sweetheart and friend. We went together for four years and I have many fond memories of him and have always held him in high regard. I was saddend to hear of his early death. He died only four months after my husband of 44 years who died July 14, 2004. I want to send my sincere condolances to Bernadette and Helen Benson and their family at this difficult time.##imported-begin##Judy Beckman Landis##imported-end##

I very much enjoyed working with Fred while employed by both R&D Associates and Logicon on the Ft. Lewis Battle Simulation Center contract. I spent some very long but enjoyable hours in the "Bat Cave" with Fred and his "team of hearty men" on one contract renewal bid project. Our thoughts and prayers go out to Bernadette in this time of sorrow.##imported-begin##Jack V. & Xuanhai L. Carmichael II##imported-end##

I had the pleasure to meet Fred many times while campaigning for office. His intellect, and joyful banter on a variety of subjects was always interesting. Fred was always willing to volunteer and help in the campaigns of area Republicans. I know he is now smiling in heaven knowing that he help elect Dino Rossi governor.##imported-begin##Dick Muri##imported-end##
