ROHDENBURG,
Donald Carl Sr
ROHDENBURG Donald Carl Sr. beloved husband
of 49 ears to Jo Ann (Benhase) Rohdenburg, loving father of Donna
(David) Farrell and Don Jr. (Julie), devoted grandpa of Jack Walker.
Don is also survived by many family members, his very dear "Rohdenburg
Cousins'' and their spouses, nieces and nephews, brothers-in-law Don
Benhase (the late Marian and late Marianne) and Bob (Joan) Benhase and
innumerable friends. Don had the gift of making friends throughout his
entire life and keeping them for life. He was preceded in death by his
cherished parents Carl and Marie Rohdenburg and grandson Jack's father
Rick Walker and other special friends and family members. Don passed
away suddenly on Wednesday, September 13 at 75 years of age. Don was
currently serving as a Deer Park City Councilman and was former
Republican Ward Chairman for the City of Deer Park and cared very much
for the city and its residents, having resided in Deer Park for over
49 years. Don and Jo Ann would have been married 50 years in May 2007.
Don was retired from Cincinnati Milacron, a retired bailiff from the
Hamilton County Court of Common Pleas and a former director of Deer
Park Federal Savings and Loan and former Chairman of the Board of
Ameriana Bank of Ohio, headquartered in Deer Park. Don was a U.S.
Naval Reserve Veteran, and a proud graduate of the class of 1949 from
Walnut Hills High School and the class of 1954 from the University of
Cincinnati. Don was a Mason, a member of the Shrine and Eastern Star.
Don gave many years of public service as an elected official in Deer
Park, holding the offices of Councilman, President of Council and City
Auditor for many years beginning in the 1960's and continuing until
his death. But his highest priorities in life were his family and his
friends and he loved to spend time with both, all the time. Don was
always a guy you could count on to be there if you needed him and
could also be counted on to express his opinion very honestly. In his
retirement, Don and Jo Ann enjoyed cruising the streets of Deer Park
in his 1931 Ford Model A and if you wanted a ride in the rumble seat
he was happy to take you. Flags in Deer Park are being flown at half
mast in honor of Don. Visitation will be Monday September 18 from 4 -
7 P.M. at Staley-Crowe Funeral Home, 7140 Plainfield Road in Deer Park
with a brief memorial service immediately following at the funeral
home. Processional to Rest Haven Cemetery will be from the funeral
home at 10 A.M., Tuesday, September 19th. If desired, memorials may be
made in Don's name to the Deer Park - Silvemn Joint Fire Department,
7050 Blue Ash Road, Cincinnati, OH 45236 or to the Deer Park
Historical Society c/o Ann Poole at 7777 Blue Ash Rd., Deer Park, 0H
45236.
The Editor wishes to express his deepest sympathy to Don's
family.

Official City Web Site Question
I have been asked about this web site and
it's purpose. The basic history of the web site is this, I started the
site as a gift for my Mother before she took ill and passed away 6
months later. Ray had volunteered to do the official Deer Park Ohio web
site and had already started things before Mom was able to explain what I
had begun to him or anyone else. So I went forth and did the site to honor both my parents J.
H. Camp and Helen Camp for
all of their hard work over the years for the people of Deer Park Ohio.
It seems for what ever reason the City itself has not seem fit to honor
the 60+ years combined service my parents worked and volunteered.
I did
the site for people like myself who grew up in Deer Park and wanted news
and information about the City and what was happening. This web site has
never represented it's self as anything other than a history and
information web site for Deer Park Oh.
