Howard 'Shorty' Kabler, former Ripley mayor
Whether he was delivering the mail, driving children home from school or representing his community as an elected official, Howard L. "Shorty" Kabler served the public.
The Ripley, Ohio, resident died Monday in Maysville, Ky. He was 77.
During his tenure as mayor of Ripley for two terms from 1968 to 1976 and a village council member from 1976 to 1979, the city installed natural gas lines in the city for the first time and secured federal funding to improve sewer systems.
Before that, the community's raw sewage was dumped into the Ohio River, said his son, Michael Kabler.
"He was a real friend to nature and touched a lot of lives. He's always been there to help people," Michael Kabler said. "He was a person of high integrity and honesty."
Mr. Kabler was a farmer, retired rural mail carrier and school bus driver for the Ripley School District. He also served as a member of St. Michael Catholic Church in Ripley, where he was parish council president for 17 years, and was an honorary life member of the Knights of Columbus.
He served in World War II in France and Germany, and was wounded in battle before returning home in late 1944.
Earlier this month, he was indicted into the Ohio Veterans Hall of Fame and was a big supporter of establishing the Southern Ohio Veterans Home, which will be constructed in Georgetown, Ohio, next spring.
Mr. Kabler is survived by his wife, Mary Helen of Ripley; a son, Michael of Westerville, Ohio; two daughters, Angela Bridges of Cincinnati and Jackie Hansen of Ripley and six grandchildren.
Services: Mass will be held at 11 a.m. Saturday at the St. Michael Catholic Church in Ripley. Visitation: 5-9 tonight at the Cahall Funeral Home in Ripley.
Memorials: the Howard Kabler Memorial Fund for the benefit of the Southern Ohio Veterans Home, in care of Ripley National Bank, 101 Main St., Ripley, 45167.
