John Franklin Shuster, age 91, of Beavercreek, Ohio, passed away peacefully at home on May 25, 2023. He was born in Cincinnati, Ohio in 1931, the son of Wilbur and Bernice Shuster, and attended Withrow High School in Cincinnati, Ohio Wesleyan University in Delaware, Ohio and then received his MBA from Northwestern University in Chicago.

Following a tour in the United States Air Force, he spent most of his career with the Proctor & Gamble Company in Cincinnati, Ohio, marketing such brands as Jif Peanut Butter, Crisco Oil, Duncan Hines Mixes, Pringles and Folgers Coffee. Following retirement, he and his first wife Patty were actively involved in restoring their family farm in Lucasville, Ohio.
