BENJAMIN BAXT Obituary

BAXT BENJAMIN 84, of Penn Valley, PA on October 5, 2021. Loved and beloved father of Elisa Baxt (Richard Voroscak) and doting and beloved husband to the late Joni Baxt. Born in Philadelphia to Dr. Leon and Ruth Baxt, he spoke fondly of his close relationship with his parents, especially driving his father around on house calls once he could legally drive. Ben's loves, in order, were his wife and daughter, cars, boats, watches, and anything chocolate. There will be a short service to remember Ben at 1 P.M. on Thursday October 7, 2021 at WEST LAUREL HILL CEMETERY, 225 Belmont Avenue, Bala Cynwyd, PA. Please no flowers or donations. Ben asked that you do something kind for a friend, neighbor, or elderly person. www.westlaurelhill.com

Ben and Joni were my all time favorite guests at CFA King of Prussia. I will always remember Ben for his amazing memory, and the amount of love he expressed for Joni. Sorry, Ben, never got to detail your Corvette for you, but I will do someone else's car as you wished.

With my father, Walter, we had an independent adjustment business. Ben was not a competitor, he was a friend. Many times we would share losses when either of us were too busy. Just a very nice man.
