On the last day of his life the Birmingham ABC News ran a story on the life of Benjamin Strickler on the nightly news. Here is the online link to the video telling his story and the lives he touched.

Great Job, (again), Blake.

And a salute to your Grandfather.
For all that he did in service of our country, the friendship to his peers, and for his love of his wife, Mary.
Individuals could learn a lot about life from his example.

<salute>!

Very good as always Blake, although I would like to see more articles on Richmond social scene.

Nicely done sir, nicely done indeed!
