BENJAMIN ELLINGTON HARVEY was born on June 7, 1985, in Hot Springs, Ark. He is survived by his parents, Katherine Tweedle Harvey and John Stansel Harvey; his aunts, Edwina Harvey and Molly Bogen; his "brother," Scott Townsend; and his special pets, Moses and Allison Harvey. Today, Benjamin is reunited with his pets, Bunzington and Fozzie Harvey. He is preceded in death by his grandparents, Earl and Jane Tweedle, Edwin (Buddy) and Mary Harvey. Benjamin will always be the center of his mother's universe and the love of her life, and he leaves behind a host of kind and loving friends who are missing him. Benjamin is a graduate of Benton High School and the University of Arkansas, Fayetteville where he earned a B.F.A. in art and graphic design and where he was a member of the varsity paintball team. In addition to his work as a freelance graphic design artist, Benjamin was an accomplished and passionate musician and visual artist.
