Subject: Re: Benkea
Thank you Tairbear00. For the reminder. 20 years ago today? That's unreal.
I remember the day very well. That was one terrible, awful day. A day with news that I could hardly believe!

I think I printed all messages regarding Benkea's accident. And death. And mailed them all to you. So that you could pass them on to Ben's wife. Was that the AOL board?

What a freak, tragic accident.

I didn't know Benkea per se. But I felt like I knew him. Ditto Babyb. And ditto you. Subsequently, we did make it to a few Berkshire annual meetings. But I never met up with any of you three.

I did meet Sherri and shared a toddy pulled from her purse. I talked to her via phone several times, too. I also briefly met Tode at one of the annual meetings. I am so glad to see him back!!!

But Benkea? It's still very sad.
