John Wiley Obituary
Ben was born on December 27, 1969 in Oshkosh, WI, son of the late Averill John Wiley Jr. and Sandra Lynn (Radloff) Wiley.
He attended Bethel Lutheran grade school and graduated from Fox Valley Lutheran High School. He later received his Bachelor's Degree from Cornell College in Iowa. Ben worked as a Financial Advisor in Plymouth for many years, first for Edward Jones and most recently for LPL Financial and Riverstone Wealth Management. Ben recently received his CDL and was very proud of that achievement. He was excited about the opportunity to drive truck part-time.
Ben was a longtime member of the Plymouth Lions Club, serving term as President in 2018-2019.
He was the wonderful storyteller and could make just about anybody laugh. He loved history and biographies, and treasured a recent trip to England and Normandy to learn more about D-Day. He loved his dogs and they were his constant companions. Most recently, he loved taking walks with his dog Cassie, and also enjoyed going on weekend motorcycle rides with his friends.
Ben is survived by: his sisters, Nell (Roger) Houser and Frederica (Craig) Doriot; and brother, Ladd (Sandy Ballou) Wiley; Auntie Kay Radloff; Cousin, Joan LeClerc; as well as other relatives and many friends.
He is also survived by his good friend Derek, and his 3 daughters: Kaitlyn, Claire, Ava, and son, Carter. Ben was a great family friend who enjoyed joking around and knew how to make everyone laugh.
He was preceded in death by his parents.
Following Ben's wishes, cremation has taken place and no services will be held.
