Rest in Peace Ben - you gave me and many others a lot of happy afternoons thanks to your work on Wii homebrew.

You'll be remembered by the many people who looked up to you and your technical prowess.

I rarely write or speak. But now I am sad. I am grateful for inspiration. May your memory inspirate others as well. Farewell Ben.
