To this union were born two sons. Both died in infancy. In 1909 they adopted a little orphan baby girl" now Sister Ruth Beachey; and since Dec., 1918, they have given a home to a homeless boy. Bro. John came to Indiana with his parents when about 6 years old. They settled near Middlebury and here John grew up and spend the greater part of his life. He united with the Mennonite Church at Clinton Brick when a young man. No one can tell just how much he is missed here. The young men miss him as their teacher, the entire church misses him as their gifted leader in song service, the young people and children miss him as their friends, the poor and needy miss him because he was kind. Modest, quiet, kindly dispositioned, helpful"thus he went to his reward. He was sick only a week. When one of the brethren visited him during this illness, he said, "Well John, you are pretty sick, aren't you?" Bro. John looked up, and replied: "Be ye therefore also ready; for in such an hour as ye think not the Son of man cometh." This was his last message to all: "Be ready." His remains were laid to rest at Forest Grove on Friday the 4th. Funeral services at the home and cemetery by John Garber and at the Fork's church by D. D. Miller and John Garber from Matt. 24:44. Bro. Beachey and Sister Nice were our leaders in song service, at our last S. S. conference. By a strange coincidence, both have answered to the Master's call to join with the ransomed in singing the song of the redeemed, ere the time for another conference. Transcriber's notes: Beachy/Beachey's - the name is spelled in two different ways in the obituary; it's Beachy in the bold header but Beachey throughout the text).
