Benjamin Lee Layer was born on January 8, 1990. Ben left us on January 6, 2026, just two days shy of his 36th birthday. Ben was an avid outdoorsman. He enjoyed to fish, hunt, and his numerous off-road excursions.

By far, his favorite time of year was the fall. He was forever drawn to the woods chasing whitetail deer. When he became an uncle, he was overjoyed to share his love of the woods with his nephews. Ben would spend extra time setting up deer stands and spotting the area on his families expansive “deer filled” property. His efforts always seemed successful, and he had a wide range of photographs from his trips.

Besides roaming the outdoors, Ben was very talented in carpentry. He could build or assemble anything. From late night vehicle repairs to pulling your stuck vehicle from a ditch, he was always there. Ben was the person that most people had in times of need. Ben also had many jobs since he had worked since he was old enough to. He ran heavy equipment, farmed, and most recently worked at General Motors in Fort Wayne, IN.

Ben will be dearly missed by many. His stories will carry on with a smile by the people he loved.

Monday, January 12, 2026, at 11:00 a.m., a Mass of Christian Burial is scheduled at All Saints Catholic Church in Logansport, with Father Kyle Neterer officiating. Burial will be in Bethel Cemetery, Cass County.

In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions can be sent to Cass County Community Foundation for the planned construction of “Bethel Community Chapel” located at Bethel Cemetery where Ben will be laid to rest.

A note to our community -
Tomorrow, Tuesday, December 9th - the very large Silver Maple tree in the front yard of the funeral home will be removed. This tree has completely matured and its branches have recently been breaking loose and falling. This endangers not only our historic building but the wrought-iron fence surrounding it.
We will miss this tree but will not miss finding large branches in our front yard from time to time. Luckily, until now, none have fallen on the building, porches or fence.
This missing tree will change the appearance of our property and the corner of Seventh & Market. It will be conspicuous by its absence. A new tree in its place is planned.

Address

711 E Market Street
