He passed away in his home early Tuesday morning, October 15, 1963, after a brief illness of only a few hours duration. His death was caused by heart failure. He attained the age of 53 years, 5 months and 26 days. He came to Alberta in 1927, and after several trips back to Manitoba, he returned to make this his home and here we have farmed since 1939. On November 2, 1932 he married me, Caroline Reimer, and together we shared the blessings of life for 31 years. In the spring of 1936, God's convicting Spirit prompted us to repentance and upon the confession of our faith in our Saviour we were baptized into the Church of God in Christ, Mennonite, in which faith he remained true to his end. He had been in comparatively good health excepting a short period of hospitalization, due to a heart condition, several years ago. He had a special concern for things spiritual in the latter months of his life. On awaking Tuesday morning at 2:00 we soon saw his critical condition and all the children were called to his bedside and were able to be present, except those from a distance. Though he had a desire to stay with his loved ones, he gave us the full assurance of being ready to meet his Maker. Shortly after the doctor's arrival he breathed his last. He leaves to mourn his too early departure me, his deeply bereaved companion, Caroline, four sons and three daughters, two daughters-in-law and one son-in-law: Leroy and Marianne of Linden; Gerald and Joyce of Edmonton; Reginald and Ellie at home; Jennie and Wilbert of Linden; and Audrey and Darlene also of the home; seven grandchildren, of whom he was very fond; three brothers, Peter of Ste. Anne, Man., Isaac of Crooked Creek, Alberta, and Otto of Salmon Arm, B. C.; four sisters, Lena (Mrs. Peter Goossen) of Ste. Anne, Man., Mary (Mrs. John Reimer) of Saskatoon, Sask., Tina (Mrs. Jac. G. Loewen) Glenn, California, Susie of Meadow Lake, Saskatchewan and one brother-in-law, Arthur Reimer of New Westminster, B. C. Preceding him into the great beyond was his father and mother, Isaac and Anna Reimer and two sisters, Margaret (Mrs. Jacob Reimer) Steinbach, Man. Anna (Mrs. John Toews) Winnipeg, Manitoba, and one brother Jacob. Though we mourn and would have liked to have him with us longer, we have the assurance father left us with the hope of life in the glory beyond. -The Family He is so suddenly silent; Dad, with his love and care. We ache with the pall of parting, For he is no longer there! Only the husk that held him, Like the shell when the bird has flown, Or a coat that is hung in a closet, When a weary traveller's home. The grave is so cruel and silent, It's clutch so final and cold; Now we must yield our loved one, Into its awful hold. But O grace of a loving Saviour, Who has broken the chains of the grave; Who arose from its gloom victorious, To seek the lost, and to save! So we give to the grave's grim grasp His body, but never his love. He is living . . . through faith I know it .. . And waiting for us above. Waiting, and beckoning Homeward All of his own, but oh! It seems it is harder to stay behind, By far, than to see him go. Funeral services were held in the Linden church, Oct. 18, with Min. Ben Hiebert speaking words of comfort from Numbers 23:10; Psa. 90; James 4:14. Burial was made in the nearby cemetery. J. J. Barkman & Son were in charge of funeral arrangements.
