Arthur A. Fueglein, 86, foreman, farmer
Brenda Ross credits her father, Arthur A. Fueglein of Erlanger, with giving her the qualities of fortitude, strength and a sense of humor.
Mr. Fueglein, who died Monday at the age of 86, she said, "would carry out everything he was told to do and stood tall."
He did stand tall, in fact -- about 6-foot-4 and 240 pounds in his prime. "He was a presence, " she said.
His proudest job was serving as Campbell County foreman for the Kentucky Department of Highways, she said. But he also worked in sales for The Kentucky Post, and he did part-time farming on the family farm in Brent, a community just south of Fort Thomas.
A devoted supporter of the Democratic Party, he was a member of the Campbell County Democratic Club.
He was a past president of the Mary Ingles Highway Development Association, a group that residents of Brent, Silver Grove, and Melbourne formed to lobby for the construction of Ky. 8.
Mr. Fueglein also loved animals.
His daughter remembers him taking sacks of feed to the Campbell County Animal Shelter.
He also bought ice cream cones in Cincinnati and gave them to the animals.
He didn't have much formal education, his daughter said, but he taught her the value of education.
