Obit from Messenger of Truth Issue 23, 1992:
Clifford T. Becker was born to Tobias A. and Nettie Harms Becker on December 21, 1907, near Galva, Kansas. He passed away on October 7, 1992, at the Newton Medical Center, Newton, Kansas. Death came as a result of complications following a surgery.
Father lived his entire life in the Galva community.
At twenty-three years of age, he married Marie Jantz at Enid, Oklahoma. To this union were born four sons and six daughters.
His occupations included farming and dairying. Places of employment included W-R Milling and Central Kansas Hatchery.
In December, 1950, Dad realized his need for salvation, and feeling the Lord's call, he repented of his sins, and upon making a covenant with God, he was baptized on December 28, 1950, at the Lone Tree Church near Galva, Kansas.
Even though Dad had a strong faith, he had many trials and temptations during his life. On January 22, 1989, he was reaccepted to the Church fellowship after a reconsecration experience. The last three years were a special time for Mother and Dad. He is remembered for his ready testimony of God's grace extended to him, and the joy of salvation in his heart.
As we grieve his departure, we are thankful that Dad made his preparation to meet his Lord.
He leaves to mourn: his loving wife, Marie; three sons: Franklin and wife Louise; Lawrence and wife Kathy, all of McPherson, Kansas; and Freddie and wife Donna, Park City, Kansas; six daughters: Juanita and husband Lincoln Koehn, Moundridge, Kansas; Frances Ricks, McPherson, Kansas; Florence and husband Don Yingling, Hutchinson, Kansas; Bertha and husband Orval Koehn; Carol and husband Loren Koehn, all of Galva, Kansas; and Nina and husband Glenn Koehn, Fredonia, Kansas; two brothers, Ted and Sam; one sister, Matilda; twenty-five grandchildren; ten great-grandchildren; and many other relatives and friends.
Preceding him in death were his parents; one son, Jimmy; five brothers; one sister; and one granddaughter.
Funeral services were held on October 10, 1992, at the Gospel Mennonite Church, Moundridge, Kansas. Min. Kenneth Koehn and Deacon Laurence Becker were in charge of the service. Interment was at the Lone Tree Church Cemetery, Galva, KS
