Legacy
Not a eulogy. A working list of what the public record already says will outlast a news cycle.
Legacy, for Ben, is still in present tense. The farm is still the first sentence. The 2018 conversion is still the hinge. Who I Am and If I Got Jesus going Gold in 2026 is a certification, not a tombstone. The Opry circle and the Black Sheep Tour are rooms he is still walking through.
If there is a through-line the published interviews keep repeating, it is this: he does not want the S on his chest. He wants the black sheep to know they were looked for. That is the assignment the official biography already prints. We are not adding a marble statue on top of it.
