Fair Haven Day is now a new tradition in the community.

So, on the cusp of Saturday’s eighth Fair Haven Day, we look back to the third, the Fair Haven Day of 2015, and remember a bond of friendship that started in the small 1.7-square-mile borough that will always be home to many.

Ben Hamilton, who is no longer with us, was a Fair Haven kid. From the time he was a kid, he forged a lasting friendship with Dave Becker, Cathy Mazza Becker and his significant other, Wendy Ostrov Delehanty.

The four got together at Fair Haven Day 2015, all smiles, keeping that lifetime friendship going strong.

It turned out to be Ben’s last Fair Haven Day. RIP, Ben.

Have thanked a lifetime friend for their friendship lately?
