In June, 1885, he was married to Kathryne Roth, who preceded him in June, 1939. Seven children were born to this union, three of whom preceded him. On Nov. 20, 1942, he was married to Mattie Schweitzer. In his youth he accepted Christ as his Saviour and united with the Amish Mennonite Church. When the West Fairview Church was built in 1905, he transferred his membership there and was one of the few remaining charter members. He served this church as Sunday-school teacher and superintendent, and served on the board of trustees for a number of years. As long as health permitted he took a keen interest in the cause of Christ and the church. He leaves to mourn his departure his loving wife, 3 daughters (Mrs. C.D. Stauffer, of Milford; Mrs. Mabel Klopfenstein, Goshen, Ind.; and Mrs. Elsie Troyer, Beaver Crossing, Nebr.), one son (William R., of Milford), 5 stepdaughters (Mrs. Malinda Burkey, Valparaiso, Ind.; Mrs. Sadie Hostetler, Mrs. Katie Kremer, Mrs. Alice Saltzman, and Mrs. Irene Roth, of Milford) 2 stepsons (Lee Schweitzer, Friend, Nebr.; and Harry Schweitzer, Dorchester, Nebr.), 4 brothers (William R., Wayland, Iowa; Dan R., of Milford; Jake R. Glendale, Calif.; and Frank, Manson, Iowa), 5 sisters (Mrs. Mary Roth, Albany, Oreg.; Mrs. Sarah Boshart, Mrs. Emma Graber, and Mrs. Caroline Wyse, of Wayland; and Barbara Conrad, Smithville, Ohio), 31 grandchildren, 39 great-grandchildren, and many other relatives and friends. He was preceded by 2 sisters and one brother: Mrs. Hannah Roth, Mrs. Madgalene Miller, and Levi. He had been in failing health for almost a year. In January he had a siege of sickness, but was well on the way to recovery. The direct cause of his death was streptococcic infection in the throat. His body was removed to the home of his daughter, Mrs. J.R. Troyer, because of the serious illness of his wife. Funeral services were held April 7, in charge of Ezra Roth, assisted by J.E. Zimmerman and Peter Kennel. Interment was made in the cemetery adjoining the church.
