Arlen Griffey (Prelude) - Casper

My son Benjamin has always been the smartest kid I ever knew.

We didn’t have much money because I was in the army.

Ben was smart enough to do anything he wanted.

He could easily have become a doctor, lawyer, scientist.

His love for music was very clear early on, when he started singing all of the

words to Michael Jackson —

When he was five, Benjamin was mixing his own cassette tapes using an old turn

table, with still casette tape deck.

His favourite album to sample with Michael Jackson’s «Thriller"and it was

altered in numerous special cassettes for Benjamin alone.

I’m very proud of my son for following his dream in music and refusing the

surrend for the pressures withtin the world.

The things I wish for Ben’s future are be happy, stand up straight for your

beliefs, remember your family and help people whenever you can.
