Here he married and soon afterward moved to Morgan county, Missouri, where he had his home until a few months ago, when he moved to Kokomo, Ind., to take medical treatment at the "Invalid's Home." The friends with the remains did not arrive in Allen Co., Ohio, in time to hold the funeral services on Saturday the 26th as appointed, so they were postponed till the next day. In Sherrick's graveyard the body was laid to rest, near the spot where over fifteen years ago he confessed Christ and was baptized while he was on a traveling and visiting tour. Bro. Shank was a much beloved member in the Mennonite Church, and was in possession of a living hope, so that he was willing and glad to depart when he found that it was the Lord'swill that he should go. He leaves a bereaved widow (his second wife) and four children to mourn his departure in the prime of his life. We commend our widowed sister to those among whom she will find her home as worthy of their sympathies. May the Lord bless her in her sorrows, and strengthen her for all the duties devolving upon her. HERALD OF TRUTH - Volume XXI, Number 15 - August 1, 1884 - page 237
