He had been ill three months with paralysis. Surviving are his wife (Minnie Witmer), 3 sons (John, Waterloo, Ont.; Paul, Monerville, Ont.; and David, St. Jacobs, Ont.), and one daughter (Grace, St. Jacobs, Ont.). He was preceded in death by his parents, his first wife (Mary Ann Shantz), a daughter (Nina), and all his brothers and sisters (David, Enos, Lydia, John, Moses, Mary Ann, Menno, Magdalena, Abram, Ira, and Elmina). He accepted Christ as his Saviour at the age of fifteen. In 1900 he was called to serve as minister of the Waterloo congregation. Along with this responsibility he served at itinerant minister for several outlying points. At the call of the Mission Board he served for three years at Skerton and then returned to Waterloo. He helped to start the House of Friendship and also served the Baden Mission for a period of years after his release from Waterloo. The last six years of his life were spent in doing hospital visitation which afforded him much happiness. Funeral services were held at the Erb Street Church in charge of J. B. Martin, Henry Jantzi, and Walter Brubacher, and Rufus Jutzi.
