His wife (Mattie Yoder King) and one son and two brothers preceded him in death. The health of the deceased had been fairly good until October this year at which time he moved with his son-in-law to Nampa, Idaho. Immediately after his arrival at that place he took sick and his affliction was of such a nature as to require a surgical operation. Death ensued about 1 week later. The remains were brought back and buried besides his wife in the East Holbrook Cemetery near La Junta, Colo., Nov. 3. In early life he united with the Mennonite Church and was an active worker in the same until recent years, when some misunderstanding caused him to lose his membership with the church. During his affliction he expressed a desire to depart this life being at peace with God. Funeral service conducted by J. M. Nunemaker. Text, I Thes. 4:14.
