=======================
Grandpa Ben told us stories of going for picnics with the neighbors at Buffalo Lake. When I drove through that area there was still a recreation spot administered by the county on Buffalo Lake.
=======================
5'6" tall and heavy set. Had darker hair and wore glasses.
===================
Jan 1986, Betsy Putnam Ask wrote about Grandpa Ben:
He always wore a suit with a white shirt and white socks (had to wear white socks due to perspiration). Also he used to have 50 cents in his hand and would go up to the grandchildren and get them to shake hands with him and the little ones would end up thinking they were rich. He would always sing "She'll be coming around the mountain when she comes". He considered himself a good Catholic and attended mass every Sunday. When we were growing up and questioning some aspects of the church, Grandpa Ben did not like to hear any discession concerning the Church. He took Betsy to her first movie, Jimmy Stewart in "Little Brown Jug" when she was 4 or 5 years old. He'd always take us out to eat with him especially for hamburgers and ice cream. He used to say "How can you eat all that Betsy? Someday it will catch up to you," and it has. I remember staying overnite at the big brick house...Ben and Ethyl would hide me behind the curtains so no one would find me and I would stay over nite. I stopped at the white house to visit Ben the night before he died. He was in good spirits playing solitaire with the card table in front of his chair and the TV on. We had a nice visit.
