He professed a hope in Christ several years ago. He was an invalid for several years and bedfast for five years. He was patient and faithful in his
suffering, always looking forward to the time when he would be released from the pain and suffering here. He was a faithful husband and father and a place is vacant in our home which never can be filled, but we know our loss is his gain so we will try to look on the bright side and there will be no more sorrow and pain, so 'We cannot say, and we will not say, that he is dead, he is just away."
