In May, 1872, they united with the Mennonite Church, in which faith he was always a believer. We can look back over time and remember the advice of a Christian father. Since time permits me to remember, he always found time to read a portion of his Bible each day, and his place was never vacant in the church unless sickness prevented. He had always enjoyed the best of health until the past three years when he suffered from bronchitis and heart trouble. About 3 months before his death, on account of high blood pressure, his mind was deranged for about 6 weeks; but he recovered from that and enjoyed fairly good health until he slept peacefully away. Funeral Dec. 13 by H. Stevanus from Jno. 11.
