Ben O'Dell, our beloved husband, father, son and brother passed suddenly on the morning of January 16th from an asthma attack. We are utterly shocked and heartbroken.

We have been asked by numerous friends and loved ones for ways that they can help, so we are setting this GoFundMe account to cover funeral expenses. The money will be used to pay for the funeral services and Ben's headstone. Any money left over will be divided and put into the college funds that are being set up for Ben's daughters: Chloe, Age 5, and Riley, Age 1.

We are heartened by the outpouring of love that shows so many people love Ben as much as we do.

We wanted to share a deep sincere thank you to everyone who has helped us through this. Ben would be so touched knowing he made in difference in so many people's lives. Please reach out if you are interested in attending his memorial service on Feb. 15 in Tucson.

Thank you,

Aileen O'Dell (wife)

Rob O'Dell (brother)
