• Notes

  Jantzi. - Solomon R., son of Daniel and Barbara (Rachley) Jantzi, was born at Linwood, Ont., March 21, 1876; departed this life at the House of the Good Samaritan, Watertown, N. Y., where he had been a patient for seven days, July 24, 1945; aged 69 y. 4 m. 3 d. Although he had not been well for some time, little did we realize that he would be called so suddenly from our midst. In 1899 he came to Lowville, N. Y., where he since resided. On Oct. 8, 1901, he was married to Anna Lehman, who survives. Eleven children were born to this union: Aaron, Rosila, Mahlon, Rudolph, Simon, Kathryn - Mrs. Charles Forrester, and Esther, all of Lowville; Elmer, Glenfield, N. Y.; Sarah - Mrs. Lloyd Zehr, Alvin, and Marion, of Lowville. He also leaves 21 grandchildren, 4 brothers (Chris, Mose, and John, of Ontario; and Daniel, of Alberta), and 3 sisters (Mrs. Joseph Nafziger, of Alberta; Mrs. John Holst and Mrs. Allen Bender, Baden, Ont.). In his youth he accepted Christ as his Saviour and united with the Conservative A. M. Church near Croghan, N. Y. He attended faithfully as long as health permitted. Because of the illness of his companion, a private prayer service was held at the home July 26 by C. M. Nafziger, with further services at the Croghan A. M. Church by Elias Zehr and Allen Gingerich. Interment was made in the church cemetery. Gospel Herald - Vol. XXXVIII, No . 24 - September 14, 1945, pages 453-455
