Mr. Hale was the agent in charge for the FBI in 1981 when my sister was kidnapped. He became part of our family during that difficult time. He was one of the finest human beings I have had the pleasure to know. My prayers are with his family.
George A Gattas, Jr.
My father was Major George Currey, who considered Ben like a brother and dearest friend. I first met Ben in about 1970, when i was 12 years old. He took my family to enjoy our first pizza dinner. Ben, to me, was like James Bond, a man of mystery and sophistication. He and my father had many adventures in their world of security. One of the most special was The Rose Bowl, in which Garth Brooks sang the National Anthem.
He was a brilliant man, and the best of friends to my father. I would like to tell the family, I am so sorry for your loss. Your dad was an extraordinary man, and I will always have the fondest of memories of him.
