The funeral was held on Thursday morning from the home where a short service was conducted by Bro. Abram Smith, to the Mennonite church at Altona, one mile distant. Here the services were conducted by Bro. Amos H. Martin, of Ephrata, Pa., assisted by Bro. McGuire, M. B. C., pastor, and Bro. Leonard Hoover, of Wideman Mennonite congregation. The little church was filled to capacity, and an overflow congregation assembled in the Union Church near by, with services conducted by Bro. Isaac Brubacher of Stouffville M. B. C. Church and others. Brother Grove had reached his 68th year, born July 19, 1868, at Ringwood, Markham Township. He was the son of the late Jacob B. Grove, who had a family of two sons and two daughters, the only surviving member being Jacob L. of the homestead, Ringwood. In 1894 he was united in marriage to Susan Meyer of Altona, Ont. This union was blessed with three children (Mrs. Sam Fretz and Mrs. Willis Davis of Pickering Township, and Mrs. Frank Sellers of Scarborough Twp.) He was converted in 1894. In 1896 he moved from his farm near Almira, Markham Township, to his late home. In August of the same year he was called to the ministry where he served faithfully. He preached both in the English and German languages as circumstances required. In June, 1927, the church advanced him to the office of bishop. In this calling he was most devoted, seeking to relieve himself of secular responsibilities in recent years. He was held in high esteem by his flock and was a friend of the young people. The Wisler Mennonite Church at Markham has had careful shepherding in these years and substantial growth has been made. He is survived by his widow, three daughters, and sixteen grandchildren.
