Notes - My father remembers that they moved from Middletown, OH to northern Indiana to work the onion fields for a summer and then moved back to Piqua, Ohio where Ben was born.
He graduated from Trenton High School, in Trenton, Ohio during the depression. He then joined the CCC. When the depression was waning, he became a student at Ohio State University. He was a member of a Fraternity there. He completed two years at OSU before being drafted into World War II. Ben achieved the rank of Sergeant in the U.S. Army Air Corps. He was a member of the East Columbus Lion's Club and the National Kitchen Cabinet Association. He was the founder and owner of the Formitex Plastic Fabricators and Coate Floor Co.
He is remembered by friends and family as a very hard worker, someone with a lot of spunk, who spoke up for the underdog and showed no prejudice for any of his fellow man. He was a great supporter of his church, St. Andrew Christian Church in Dublin, Ohio. (C-1779, Obit.)
