Benjamin Kroner Obituary
Ben was born on May 1, 1935 in Philadelphia, PA. He relocated to Miami, FL in the early 1940's
with his parents, Abraham and Hilda and his sister Norma. Ben remained in Miami for the rest
of his life.
Ben was widely known for this love of horses, which began at an early age, when people had
horses in their backyards in downtown Miami. He served in the Air Force and worked as a
police officer for several years, while learning to be a farrier. He then worked as a farrier for
over 50 years.
Ben had his Bar Mitzvah in May of 1949 at Beth David in Miami and continued to follow his
family's traditions.
Ben will be remembered forever as a person that was always happy. He was dedicated to his
family and friends. He was a leading member of the South Florida Trail Riders Club for over 40
years.
Ben is survived by his children: Victoria (Dean) Johnson and Laurie (Alan) Miqueli. He is also
survived by his sister, Norma Kroner-Elliott and niece Janice (Chuck) Tartan. He is preceded in
death by his wife of 65 years, Dorothy Kroner.

Ben was a talented farrier that cared for many horses in our stable. I always enjoyed visiting with him and appreciated his care and patient demeanor. Everyone who knew him will miss him!
