Stanmore Bay, Whangaparaoa
While Ben was at work, he suffered an unexpected medical event related to his heart and sadly passed away. The shock of losing him so suddenly has left everyone who knew him devastated.
Ben wasn’t just one of the good ones, he was the kind of person who made life lighter. Kind, funny, generous, and loved by everyone who had the privilege of knowing him. A true GC in every sense.
If Ben was there, you felt it. He brought laughter, warmth, and that effortless charm that made people gravitate toward him. He had a way of showing up whether for a good time, for a mate, for anyone who needed him, and he never arrived empty handed.
His passing has left a void that feels impossible to fill.
Most heartbreaking of all, Ben leaves behind his 8 year old son Jamie, who adored his dad more than anything. Jamie is now facing a world without one of the people who meant the most to him. Ben’s parents, Gay and Drew, along with his wider family and friends, are trying to navigate a loss that came out of nowhere and makes no sense.
This fund is to help Gay with funeral costs, and to support Jamie as he grows up without his dad beside him. Anything you can give will truly make a difference, and Ben’s family is deeply grateful for every bit of love, kindness, and support.
