I live close by the cemetery and go say hello to Benjamin. I left a few of those cars for him and I always leave flowers

Ric Ocasek and Benjamin Orr were both lead's in The Cars. What a great band!

That was really sweet of you to visit Benjamin's grave. So sad that he died of cancer.

[DISCODAN]

What a loss! I wish both Ben and Ric were still around and healthy to tour and help us relive a better time in our lives! The 70’s-80’s were the best!

I went to see Ben’s grave last April and left him the little guitar that is up against his stone. From time to time someone visits and you get to see how much it changes. Makes me happy that someone regularly tends to his grave. ❤

I still remember watching Orr singing during Live Aid, and I watch that footage weekly! RIP Ben.😢

Respect for showing respect and keeping his memory alive.

Was taking a road trip last year with my grandson, and stopped by to visit Ben's grave. My grandson left his little orange Bugatti he had brought along. Looks like it's still there 😊

I will never forget seeing the Cars and Benjamin Orr. The Cars blew away everyone! And their music will never get old.

Miss you everyday Benjamin. Had to believe it's been 24 years. See you soon.

The Cars were my high school music (graduated in 1980). Loved them!

[rozchristopherson]

Thank you. I graduated from college in 1983. Came home and vegged out in front of MTV. Loved The Cars. RIP Benjamin. ❤️🙏

I grew up listening to The Cars late 70s/early 80s.
Ocasek and Orr split vocal duties.
Rest in power to both!

[jaywalker]

Honestly being the cars in my top 5 of all time
I am highly appreciative of your share.
Thank you very much!

I am 66 years old! Thanks for posting this! I was a big Car's fan in the late 1970s and 1980s. At first I did not tell the difference between the vocals of Ben Orr and Rick Ocasak. As a matter of fact I did not really paid that much attention, because I love the instrumental part of their music. My favorite band member is Elliot Easton. Not because he was from the same town we grew up in Massapequa, NY, but he was just a great guitar player and loved listening to his lead!
