Ben was a proud veteran of the U.S. Army where he served by supporting our troops through the U.S Army Baseball team. His life seemed to be centered around baseball. Whether he was playing, coaching, mentoring, or rooting for his beloved Cincinnati Reds, Ben was front row, center. He also favored the UK Wildcats teams. He also was known throughout central Kentucky as a mentor to many young ball players who needed that extra dose of encouragement. Vocationally, he was the Director of Rick Management for LexTran. Ben was also an accomplished artist. For recreation, he enjoyed working in his yard and visiting with the neighbors. It didn’t matter where he was, from the barbershop to the board room, he was the same man every day. One of his unofficial titles given to him by then Mayor Teresa Isaacs was, “The Other Mayor”.
