Weber.-George Abram Weber passed away at his home at Parkway, Kitchener, Ont. , on Thursday, Aug. 21, 1941, after an illness of about six weeks. Bro. Weber was born on June 24, 1879 and passed away on the farm of his birth; aged 62 y. 1 m. 28 d. He is survived by his wife (nee Malinda Woolner), with whom he was joined in holy wedlock 39 years ago at Nachez; also by 5 daughter, Vera, Mrs. Urbin Snider of Bloomingdale, Mabel, Mrs. Clayton Siebert, at home, Edna, Mrs. Edgar Martin of Elmira, Gladys, Mrs. Roy Shantz of Kitchener, and Mildred, at home. Eight grandchildren also survive. He was predeceased by 1 daughter who died in infancy. Bro. Weber's life and service was a rich boon to the church that he so faithfully served. He was known as a kind, patient, faithful and loyal servant of God. He will be missed, his helpful counsel will be missed, but we mutually rejoice in the fullness of his life, and his usefulness well nigh to the close of his life. Bro. Weber served the First Mennonite Church as Deacon for 30 years. He was Secretary of the Mennonite Mission Board for 25 years, Treasurer of the Bible School Board for a number of years, Member of the Deacons' Welfare Board. Bro. Weber during his lifetime held many more positions of trust. A loving tribute of respect was rendered Bro. Weber by his fellow deacons, ministers, and bishops, some fifty, who rose when his body was carried into the church building, then viewed the body first, and proceeded together to the cemetery, where they sang, "Blest be the tie that binds." The funeral services were in charge of the pastor, Bro. C. F. Derstine, and associate minister, Bro. Merle Shantz, conducted at First Mennonite Church, Kitchener, Ont.

Obituary of Mr. Noah Bearinger

Noah H. Bearinger, whose death we chronicled last week, was born on December 4th, 1858 in Waterloo township, where he lived until he moved up to Woolwich about 21 years ago. He was married to Nancy Martin, and to them were born eight children, all of whom are in this neighborhood. They are: Israel, Amos, David, Abraham, Noah, Jonas, Oziah and Lizzie. He acted as a local implement agent as long as he was able to be about. For about 20 years he had been suffering from a rheumatic affection of the joints, called by medical men, Arthritis Deformans. For over fourteen years he has been helpless in bed and for the last nine years he was also blind. But during all his affliction he was always cheerful, and was in this way a living lesson to all who knew him The immediate cause of death was an attack of peritonitis - inflammation of the membrane surrounding the bowels. In spite of the stormy weather on Saturday morning, a large number of relatives and friends paid the deceased a last tribute of respect by attending the funeral.

Noah married Anna B. "Nancy" Martin Apr 1884. Anna (daughter of Bishop Abraham W. Martin and Elizabeth Bauman) was born 27 Feb 1858, Woolwich Twp., Waterloo Region, Ontario, Canada; died 28 Mar 1933; was buried , Elmira Mennonite Cemetery, Elmira, Waterloo Region, Ontario, Canada. [Group Sheet]
