Ben Halsch.
Ben is the blanket to my Linus! I don’t know what it is about Benny, but he brings a quality of ‘safe’ to every encounter. He always picks just the right time to call or text with an encouragement. When I walk into a planning meeting and see him there, I know all the ‘behind the scenes’ stuff is done. When he’s my roommate, I sleep well…because he’s not going to use me as the butt of his jokes (even though I most assuredly keep him awake with me praying….um, I mean…snoring). If I ever called him and said “Ben, I need you in Corpus Christi right now”, I know he would come. (And don’t think I haven’t considered it a time or two.)
You need to know Ben! you can do that by coming to SYMC this year….and by finding him on Facebook or Twitter.
