During his suffering he talked of different passages of the scripture; it was consoling to him to have them read and have songs, of his selection sung, such as "Near er My God To Thee". Before his death he selected the text to be used for his funeral from Rev 14 Chapter, 13th verse and also the songs "Nearer My God To Thee" and "All Hail the Power of Jesus Name". He requested Rev P C Bechdolt to preach his funeral. He often called his children about him admonished them to be good; his last words was for them to live Godly. On the account of the sickness of Rev Bechdolt, there was no sermon preached. His remains was intermented in the Clay Comb Cemetery, one and a half mile west of the Green Post Office. The friends hope to have the funeral sermon preached in the future.

We miss thee from home dear father We miss thee from thy place; A shadow o'er our life is cast We miss the sunshine of thy face.

We miss thy kind and loving hand Thy fond and ernest care; Our home is dark without thee We miss thee everywhere.

He has left his earthly mansion And has gone to heaven above; There to rest forever with Jesus Where all is peace and love.

Hereaft ones, do not mourn Death will have his way; Remember that in heaven That sickle does not sway.

He has gone to heaven And left us here to dwell Such was the will of the master Who doeth all things well.
