- Officials mourn the loss of Benjamin H. Mabie
Ocean County's former administrator and longtime road supervisor, Benjamin H Mabie was remembered recently as a public servant who devoted his professional career to building as better future for Pine Beach and Ocean County.
"Call Ben, those were the two words often heard when you needed a job done." said Freeholder Director Gerry P Little. "Ben was a man who gave his all to Ocean County and he did it with a devotion and dedication that really made a difference.
"He will be sorely missed" Freeholder Little said.
Mr Mabee died on July 1 at the age of 86.
Although Mabee officially retired from full time employment at the county on April 1, 2004 he continued to work part time in different capacities.
"Ben was an icon in Ocean County and municipal government." said Freeholder John P Kelly." He was a person who knew not only how to get the job done, but how to get it done right."
"We pray for him and his wife and we pray for the Mabie family." Freeholder Kelly said.
Mr Mabie's wife, Sybil died Sunday July 2.
Mr Mabie began his careen with Ocean County government more than 40 years ago, being appointed personnel director on May 1, 1964. On Jan 1, 1966 he was named the county's treasurer. He also served as a member of the board of elections and as a staff member in the Ocean County Department of Buildings and Grounds.
"Ben was always a gentleman." said Freeholder Joseph H Vicari, who serves as liaison for buildings and grounds. "Ben treated people with kindness and respect. "Ben knows what a day's work was," he continued. "He was knowledgeable and got the job done."
On May 7, 1981, Mr Mabie was appointed assistant county road supervisor an two years later he was named county road supervisor.
Mr Mabie was named acting Ocean County administrator on March 29, 1984 and was appointed administrator on Aug 8, 1984. While serving as county administrator he remained road supervisor.
On Aug 7, 1990, he left the position of supervisor and continued in the capacity of road supervisor until his retirement,
"Ben's passing marks the end of an era in Ocean County." said Freeholder James F Lacey, who serves as liaison to the county road department. "Ben had a long history with Ocean County and I am going to miss him.
"Ben always had good advice, and he was a good listener," the freeholder continued. "He was always available to help."
Mr Mabie also served as the longtime mayor of Pine Beach and a state assemblyman.
Freeholder John C Bartlett Jr said his public service as an elected official got started with Mr Mabie, who supported his appointment to a vacancy on the Pine Beach Borough Council.
"He was absolutely a unique person," Freeholder Bartlett said. "Ben gave his all to public service and Ocean County is a better place because of it."
