After 15 years of service Ben Carlson gave evewrything to save another swimmer. Here is to those who are willing to put it all on the line for others.
You know you impacted a bunch of peoples lives when an entire city is planning a public memorial service for you. Thousands of lives saved, that's a hero.
Prayers to Ben Carlson. I used to lifeguard and there's nothing like saving another persons life. You're a hero man.
I'm in Law Enforcement. When LE officers and firemen die in the line of duty they are laid to rest during ceremonies that are unexplainable to those who have never attended one. So much honor and respect. This gentleman deserves to be laid to rest in the same fashion. Thanks to him for 15 years, and god bless his family.
