Brian “Bull” Benedict

With heavy hearts, we announce the passing of Brian "Bull" Benedict, who passed away October 25, 2025. Born in Canton, OH, Brian was the cherished son of the late Herbert and Carol Benedict. Known for his infectious humor and unyielding positivity, Brian enriched the lives of everyone around him.

Brian was a devoted husband of two years to Lanita Benedict, together they built a relationship grounded in love and respect, and their bond will be remembered as a testament to their shared joy and commitment to each other. He was a caring son-in-law of Linda Zackery and Joe Zackery. A dear brother to Adam (Rhonda), Kevin (Danielle), Eric, David, and Ann Benedict and also a brother-in-law of Steven Zackery and Latoya Zackery. He was a devoted nephew to many aunts and uncles, and he took great pride in his role as an uncle to many treasured nieces and nephews. Brian will forever hold a special place in the hearts of his family, and his memory will live on through stories filled with love and laughter.

Brian had an undeniable passion for life, embracing his interests with enthusiasm. He was a devoted fan of WWF and WWE wrestling and loved immersing himself in the cinematic world of Marvel movies. He was not just a jokester; he was the life of the party, reveling in the laughter of others. Brian cherished hosting gatherings, particularly his beloved poker nights, where camaraderie filled the room. His time as a soccer coach for his younger brother was another highlight in his life, during which he proudly led his team to five state championships.

In honor of Brian's enduring spirit, a memorial gathering will take place on Friday, November 7, 2025, at Frederick Funeral Home, located at 2553 Banning Rd., Cincinnati, OH 45239, where family and friends will gather to celebrate his life.
