30th, 1905, aged 27 y, 7 m. 3d. He united with the Mennonite church Oct. 29th, 1895. He was united in marriage with Mamie Reizner Dec. 12th, 1901. To this
union was born one child. He leaves, besides his wife and child, his father, step-mother, one sister and seven brothers to mourn his early departure. Why one so young, so useful, and full of promise should be taken from us is hard to understand; but it is enough to know that God in His infinite wisdom doeth all things well. He was ordained to the ministry July 10th, 1904.
During his short ministerial career he endeared himself to his congregation by his noble example, faithful service, able teaching and deep concern for the spiritual welfare of the church. In his death the community has lost a worthy citizen, the church a zealous and faithful worker, the wife and child a kind and affectionate husband and father. His body was laid to rest in the Mennonite cemetery near Sterling,
Ill., Sept. 2d. Services were conducted by J. S. Shoemaker and John Nice. Text,
Rev. 14:13.
