He passed away Sept. 1, 1944, at 8:45 A.M. He reached the age of 87 years, 9 months, and 20 days. When a youth he immigrated to Canada with his parents in 1874. They settled in the village of Greenfeld, Man. In the year 1877 he was united in marriage to Helena Isaac. To this union sons and daughters were born. They shared joys and sorrows for 67 years, 7 months, and 3 days. In the year 1882 he repented and found forgiveness of sins through the blood of Christ and was added to the fellowship of the Church of God in Christ, of which he remained a faithful member. In his life he was unusually blessed with good health, having been married over 66 years before spending as much as one-half day in bed sick. The last 12 weeks he was bed fast, and suffered quite much in the last time. But he was patient in his suffering and had a desire to go to that everlasting abode. During his last days God gave him a vision concerning the dreadfulness of being rejected and lost in eternity. Then later he also saw in another vision the blessedness of heaven. In the following days he often told his visitors, at his bedside, of the wonderful glories and blessings of heaven and the awfulness of hell. He spent his pioneer days, with its hardships, in Manitoba and also pioneered in Alberta. Coming here in 1902 he was one of the early settlers. He leaves behind him his wife, 6 sons, 4 daughters, 57 grandchildren, 29 great-grandchildren, one sister and two brothers, as mourners. The funeral was held Sept. 7th, in the Linden meeting house, where Min. Dan Boese opened with remarks and prayer. F. F. Hiebert spoke from scriptures Psa. 90:12, and 2 Tim. 4:7-8.
