OFU Mourns the Loss of Two Former Leaders

November 30, 2012 By Ron Sylvester Leave a Comment

The Ohio Farmers Union is sad to report the passing of two former executive committee members of the organization in late October. Orland Edward Miller, 94, of Highland County died Monday, Oct. 29 and Jane Fogle, 79, of Marion County, died Wednesday, Oct. 31. Longtime OFU members remember both as being active leaders in their county chapters. Below we are re-printing their obituaries from their local newspapers, but if you have any memories you would like to share about Orland or Jane, please send them via email to rcs(at)ronsylvester(dot)com. I would be happy to share them through the blog or in the Ohio Country Messenger.

He was retired from Allis-Chalmers in Norwood, was a member of the Pricetown Church of Christ, retired as a Clay Township Trustee and was on the Board of Governors of Highland District Hospital for over 25 years.
