Though we have been separated by the many years and great distances our hearts have always held you close. The years we spent in Indonesia were times of great growth for our family for which Ibu Soffie and Pak Beni were instrumental. You welcomed us and opened your world to us. By sharing your time , you gave us an unforgettable life changing experience. Words cannot express how much Pak Beni will be missed. Pak Beni was an unflappable leader and teacher, generously sharing his vast knowledge with numerous revolving INCO expats, myself included. Beni took me under his wing and mentored me on how to do business and geology in Indonesia.

His guidance and direction had an enormous impact on my career as a geologist. His gentle smiling face will be greatly missed. He was an inspirational man with great commitment and compassion for his company PT INCO, his family and his country. Please know how much we share your grief. We have such fond memories in which Beni will live forever.

Our heartfelt condolences.

Love,

Brian Booth, Nancy Richardson,Lindsay and Kristin
