In his youth he accepted Christ as his Saviour and was received into church fellowship, at the Wilmot A.M. Church, where he worshiped all his life. He was very fond of singing. One week before his death, when all the children were together, he requested the singing of the song "God Be with You Till We Meet Again." Bro. Peter Nafziger conducted the funeral service.
