When a young man he joined the Congregational church at Vienna, where he was an active member. He later moved his membership to the Congregational church in Onaga. He was a member of the official board of this church for a number of years. He was the kind of man that a minister likes to have as an official member.
His sincerity and devotions were beyond the questioning of any. All respected him because he was what he was, unassuming, devoted to all tha the considered right and worthy. He believed in God and he believed in the coming of the Kingdom of God, and he bent his energies to the achievement of all good things. His going is a loss to the entire community and all sympathize with the bereaved family and friends in their loss. His absence from among us will be noted by all of us. His illness has extended over a number of years, and his death, while not unexpected, will leave the entire community poorer.
Funeral services were held at the Onaga Congregational church on Thursday afternoon, in charge of Rev. W. A. Lower. Interment was in the Vienna cemetery.
