Ben Pino was born in Levi, New Mexico on March 28, 1930, to Jose Ignacio Pino and Maria Ascencion Pino. Our good Lord, who numbers our days, chose to take Dad home on July 29, 2025 at 95 years old!

Dad served in the US Army during the Korean War. He was sent to Germany for Food Service Training and he also became a Cannoneer! After serving in the military, he lived in Pueblo and worked for the Pueblo Army Depot until his 1st retirement in 1981. He then drove the Athletic Activity Bus for Rocky Ford School district for another 15 years until he retired for the 2nd time!

Dad was very proud of his five children: Michael (Rex), Peggy (Rick), Ron (Gessi), Gloria (Brad) and his youngest, Edward. He had 6 grandkids and 8 great grandkids who

Loved "Papitos" very much!

Dad was preceded in death by his wife, Mary Helen Pino and his son, Ron Pino.

We will all miss our Dad, Ben, very much. SEE YOU SOON DAD!!!!
