Ben was so very much like a true brother to me. Even at the HKAPA , when we walked together the young students would run to him and say "is that your brother professor Cruft?" One of the most interesting and knowledgeable people I've had the privilege to know.....albeit that he was noticeably changed when he lost dear Katia, his true other half and still very much missed by all who knew her. I fear that he was ever truly happy again, from that point on so we pray that somehow that they are reunited. His a life that celebrated so many things, should itself be celebrated and we remember him with love and say thank you "Acharn Ben" for all the happy memories XX
