He was quiet in many liberal in views, having been raised in the faith of the Universalist church. He was affiliated with the Mineral Spirit Camp of the Modern Woodman of America. His greatest interest centered about his home life and he was always happier when surrounded by his family and friends. Besides his wife, son and daughters, he leaves to mourn his death nine grandchildren, a number of nieces and nephews and many neighbors and friends. The funeral services were held at the M.
