His membership was transferred to the First Mesthodist Episcopal church, Guthrie, Oklahoma in 1915. His fraternal affiliations were with the Modern Woodmen, Odd Fellows and Knights of Pithias.
His sudden death was a distinct shock to his family and neighbors, but his personal desire had been fully realized for he had repeatedly expressed the hope that he would not become helpless, either physically or mentally.
Services were conducted by Rev. Callin of the First Methodist church of Edmond, Oklahoma. He was assisted by Rev. H. F. Draper of Guthrie.
He was laid to rest at the Summit View cemetery, Guthrie, on February 24, 1934.
