Honoring James Benjamin Moore

In Loving Memory of Ben

It’s hard to put into words what Ben meant to those who knew him. He was one of the funniest, most light-hearted souls you could ever meet, someone who could make you laugh until you cried and brighten even your darkest days with his signature goofy grin. Ben had this incredible way of making life feel lighter. No matter what he was personally facing, he never let it dim the joy he brought to others.

He lived loudly, laughed constantly, and loved deeply. He was the kind of person who made you feel like the world was just a little more magical when he was around. His spirit was infectious, and his presence unforgettable.

We all hoped for more time. But we take comfort in knowing that Ben is wrapped in the arms of his sweet mama, smiling that same big smile we all know so well.

I’m putting this together for his sister, Tatyana, who is now carrying so much, the heartbreak, the planning, the responsibility. If you loved Ben, laughed with Ben, or just want to support his family during this incredibly difficult time, any contribution is deeply appreciated. Funds raised will go directly to Tatyana to help with final arrangements and to honor Ben with the celebration of life he truly deserves.

Venmo is also available for those who prefer to give that way, and we’ll share more about his service soon. Thank you for holding space for Ben, for remembering him, and for helping carry a bit of this weight with his family.

Let’s send him off with the love and light he gave to so many of us.
