My son's name was Benjamin Nelson. He was born on 6/22/1984 and passed away from brain cancer on 6/21/2020. His cancer was first diagnosed in June 1990, was treated and went into remission until October 1999.

Benjamin was my sweet, funny boy. He loved cats, collected coins and stamps, loved nature and hikes, and was interested in environmental issues. He was very involved in Boy Scouts until he passed away. He also loved astronomy and had a telescope that he used to look at the stars. Reading books was another passion of his. He also loves playing video games and building small model cars with his brother.
