Regretfully, I am not able to attend the Memorial Service for Benjamin F. Bailar, and want to express sincere & heartfelt condolences to Christina, Ben Jr., and all family and friends of Ben Bailar. Ben will always have a special place in my heart as my first boss, mentor, and lifelong friend. A very special individual who always exemplified the personal values and ethics we should all strive for, and ones that I have tried to live by. Ben, it has been an honor and privilege to have been guided by you in my early days in business and to have learned so much that has carried over these many years. Thank you Dear Friend! Respectfully, Ken Boyda

Ben was such a great advocate not only for the Jones School at Rice University, but he was an important mentor and advisor to me. I miss him.
