Benjamin Worfolk
1900–1965
Diane WORFOLK: “In some respects he was a shy reticent man. Definitely an alcoholic. But he rarely missed a day’s work. Whatever his condition the night before he always could get up for work the day after. He went out every night to the local pub, or some drinking place.”
