Several days ago he expressed his faith and trust in the Lord and was reconciled and prepared to go. He never joined any church. His life was one of calm, quiet, pursuit of his work and loyalty to his duties.
He is survived by his father, mother and sister, also all of his grandparents, three uncles and a host of relatives and friends who mourn his death.
His whole life was calm and orderly. He was an obedient son with high ideals which he constantly strove to attain.
