Q. What was Benjamin Paul Epp's family life like?

A. Benn had 2 younger brothers Ashley and Daniel they where like all brothers they loved each other and the next moment they fought but if you would ask Benn about his family he would always priase them he was very proud oof them both .He spent alot of time with his brothers they would bake and cook with he was a good teach always willing to share all he knew. He had all the best things I could give him love hugs and most of all I let BEnn be who he was I encouraged him to always believe in himself and to trust his feeling and it was ok to cry just cause you where a boy did not mean you could not have feeling so my son grew up to be a very senstive man. As far as material things good he had the toys bikes computers all the things young boys want and but he also helped to work for some of the things.So if you asked Benn he would say he had a great family life and would not trade it for anything.
