He was the eldest of a family of 9 children. To his brothers and sisters he became a counselor and a father. His mother found in her son, one upon whom she could trust and counsel during her widowhood. He was united in marriage to Mary Brenneman Sept. 15, 1883, at Harpers Ferry, Va. Together they have walked life's way for 53 years. To this union were born three sons and five daughters. Two daughters and one son passed away in infancy. Those who remain are Mrs. Fennie Jackson, Glendale, Calif.; Mrs. Onie Nelson, Chicago, Ill.; Mrs. Nora Webb, Lima, Ohio; Robert, Elida, Ohio; and Mark of Kalona, Iowa; also eleven grandchildren and three great-grandchildren. Three sisters and two brothers have preceded him to the world beyond. The brothers surviving are Jacob and Walter, Elida, Ohio; Calvin, Lima, Ohio. In the family circle and among his relatives he was loved and respected as a man of deep piety and devotion, always possessing a cheerful spirit of friendliness. He united with the Mennonite Church when twenty-four years of age. He was ordained to the ministry, Dec. 30, 1894. He served in the Pike and Salem Churches during his ministerial life, except fourteen years as a minister at La Junta, Colo. (1903 - 1917) where he arrived on April 9, 1903. He preached the full Gospel, marked by earnest contending for faith, gentle but firm in all things relative to the Church and spirituality. He was unassuming in his manner, his preaching and life were one, making godliness a thing of charm and beauty to all with whom me came in contact. Among his brethren he was esteemed in his ability as a counsellor. To know him was to love him. All were compelled to respect him for his sincerity and devotion. Funeral services were held Aug. 26 at the Salem Church by Ben. B. King, assisted by Otho Shenk, Gabriel Brunk, and James Bucher. He was buried in a near-by cemetery.
