Bennie E. Slagle
Bennie Eugene Slagle, 72, Walnut Grove, died Wednesday, Jan. 5, 2000. He was born Feb. 24, 1927, in Polk County, the fifth of six children born to William Edgar and Nora Belle Case Slagle, all of whom have preceded him in death: two sisters, Ruth Harris and Fern Dodd, and three brothers, Wilbur Slagle, Billy Slagle and Roy Slagle, as well as his parents.
Bennie was united in marriage on March 3, 1950, to Mary Velma Farmer, who preceded him in death in May 1992. To this union two daughters were born, Benneta Steinmark, who preceded him in death in July 1995, and Patricia Cole, who resides in Walnut Grove.
To most who knew him, Ben was a barber, graduating from barber school in 1965 and barbering until his retirement due to health problems. He was saved at an early age at the Slagle Church at a service conducted by Brother Pringle, and before his accident, he had an inner peace with his destiny. He was an avid outdoorsman, and now that he's in Paradise, his health will not contain him.
We will miss him greatly. Until we unite again, your loving family.
Ben is survived by his daughter and son-in-law, Pat and Jim Cole of Walnut Grove; three granddaughters, Beth Melton and her husband, David, of Walnut Grove, Kim Moore and her husband, Terry, of Goodson and Kris White of Huron; one grandson, Jimmy Cole of Huron; one great-granddaughter, Brooke Moore; and one great-grandson, Cole Melton. Also surviving are several nieces, nephews and many dear friends.
Services were Saturday, Jan. 8, in the Butler Funeral Home Chapel with Brother Gene Skinner officiating. Musical selections were "Rock of Ages," "Precious Memories" and "The Lighthouse." Burial was in the Slagle Cemetery south of Bolivar. Casket bearers were Paul D. Lindley, Charles Cole, Jimmy Cole, David Melton, Terry Moore and Bob Doing. (50c) A00008B2000JA12
