With solemn reverence, we commemorate Benjamin Charles Kloepping of Port Richey, Florida, born in Long Branch, New Jersey, whose life came to an end on January 22, 2025 at the age of 55, leaving behind cherished memories. You can send your sympathy in the guestbook provided and share it with the family.

Though Benjamin may no longer walk beside us, his memory will forever be enshrined in the fabric of the lives of those Benjamin touched, a beacon of light guiding us through the darkness. In his absence, his spirit lives on — a gentle whisper in the breeze, a ray of sunlight on a cloudy day, a reminder that love knows no boundaries.

He is survived by: his mother Sharon Whatton; his siblings, Christopher Kloepping, Nicholas Perinni and Melissa Owens; and his girlfriend Melinda Newlun.

“I am awake again at three am thinking of you brother. hoping and wishing there was some kind of sign that you were okay and still I am left wondering, my heart is broken every day I notice you are not around, I try to stay strong for everyone but in the mornings when I am alone I fall to pieces over and over again. The mark you left on my heart will never leave or fade and the person I was when you were here is gone, you were my best friend and I was too cool to tell you. I love you brother Ben”

“This has been the worst day of my life, my first born son has left this world to go home to father GOD. I can’t begin to tell you what a wonderful son and person he was. He was always there for his friends and family plus anyone who needed a helping hand. He would call me everyday and night to make sure I was ok and see if I needed anything. I will never be out of my mind and thoughts. Your life was a blessing to every one who knew you. Your memory will be my treasure. I love you son and the man”
