Benjamin Todd Jolley Obituary (1998

Benjamin Todd Jolley came into this world on March 4, 1998. He is the youngest of 5 children. He is a quick learner and always wanted to be like his older siblings. He learned to walk at 9 months and became an instant climber of everything. At age one he was climbing slides and by age three he was climbing trees; it was not uncommon to find him on the top of the highest pole. He is very athletically inclined and made all his siblings jealous of his abilities. He excelled in basketball and baseball and played on the Mountain View baseball team. Ben attended Vineyard Elementary, Lakeridge Jr High and Mountain View High School. Ben was currently working at Jive Communications. He is smart and always did well in school. He is very adventurous and a daredevil, always trying to get one of us to do a back flip off the high dive with him but no one could match his courage. He is an amazing uncle to his nieces and nephews, they love him and they meant the world to him. Ben has an infectious smile, a hilarious laugh and great personality. He loved to make others laugh. Ben was loved by many and taken too soon. He was received by his loving Heavenly Father on May 7, 2018. He was preceded in death by his grandfather Wendell R Jolley, grandmother Vera Colleen Richards “Colleen" and grandfather Allen Gene Wilkins. He is survived by his grandmother, Laree Jolley, grandfather, Robert Richards, father, Todd Ray Jolley, mother, Karen Wilkins Jolley and siblings: Stephen Jolley (Jillian), Katelyn Isle (Brian), Kirstie Measom (Allan) and Samuel Jolley (Melanie), and his 8 nieces and nephews: Boston, Beckham, Emery, Scottie, Clover, Grey, Andie and Atticus.
