Example of a Husband Funeral Tribute provides a unique guide, easing the process of crafting a fitting tribute.
Ladies and gentlemen,
We gather here today to pay our respects and celebrate the life of a man who was an unwavering pillar of strength, love, compassion, and humility. A loving husband of 28 years and a devoted father to his two boys, Ben Kramer was an inspiration to all who knew him. Through his life, Ben demonstrated the boundless power of love and understanding, and his memory has called us to reflect on the true essence of how precious life truly is.
In the gentle touch of Ben’s hands and loving voice that comforted us, we saw and heard the expression of his love for life and the people around him. A passionate lover of music, Ben instilled the soul and essence of his favorite melodies into every life he touched. Much like the Climax Blues Band, whose song "I Love You" held a special place in his heart, Ben's gifts of joy, solace, and assurance bloomed in the lives of everyone he encountered.

Ben found sanctuary and freedom in riding his Harley motorcycle, feeling the refreshing breeze against his skin, with the feeling of the open road beneath him, exploring the world in all its glory, that sense of adventure inspired the hearts of everyone who knew him. As we bid farewell to Ben today, I find solace in remembering the lyrics from the Climax Blues Band, indelibly etched in our memories:
"When I was down and in trouble
You came to me
And I never knew how much I leaned on you
Until you were gone..."
It is with emotion that I consider Ben’s commitment to his craft: a lifelong legacy within the field of law enforcement. For Ben, enforcing the law was not about power, but about the responsibility he felt to ensure the safety and well-being of others, to watch over those in need, and to uplift the hearts of the people in his community. In his tireless pursuit of justice, compassion, and integrity, Ben left an extraordinary example for those who remain in the law enforcement community and for his children to follow in his footsteps, with courage and conviction.
As we mourn the loss of Ben’s physical presence from this world, let us also remember to cherish the memories we shared with him. Let us keep his spirit alive in our hearts by continuing to honor his values, his love for his family and friends, and the immense contribution he made to society.
Ben, as we lay you to rest today, we thank you for being our rock, our inspiration, and our North Star, guiding us through life’s harshest storms and shining down on us even on our darkest nights. You have undoubtedly left an indelible mark in our hearts and souls, and we promise to keep your spirit alive in the teachings you have left behind.
In the words of the Climax Blues Band:
"Please remember how much I loved you,
Put your love in your pocket when you're feeling blue,
But to take me out now and then to sing our favorite tune."
Until we meet again, Ben, rest in peace knowing that your legacy will be carried forward by the love that you nurtured and extended to all of us throughout your life. You will be forever in our hearts.
