Notes:
Jantzi.- John, son of David and Catherine (Gascho) Jantzi, was born Oct. 4, 1882, near Wellesley, Ont.; died Feb. 23, 1943, at his home at Au Gres, Mich., after an illness of six and one-half years; aged 60y. 4m. 19d. Dec. 10, 1907, he was united in marriage with Fannie Troyer at Fairview, Mich. To this union were born 14 children, of whom 2 preceded him in death. He is survived by his deeply bereaved wife, 12 children (Anna, wife of Clarence Bontrager, Alden, N.Y.; William, Au Gres; Katie wife of John Swartz, Turner, Mich.; Andrew, Flint, Mich.; Jerry, Albert, and Alvin, Williamsville, N.Y.; Edna, John, Fanny, Elmer, and Matilda, at home). 13 grandchildren, his mother, 3 brothers, and 7 sisters (Mike, Adams, N.Y.; David, Darien Center, N. Y.; Menno, Au Gres; Mrs. Noah Knepp, Au Gres; Mrs. Joe Schwartz, Turner; Mrs. Dan Swartz, Bay City, Mich.; Lydia, Au Gres; Mrs Samuel Roth, Baden, Ont.; Mrs. Lucina Lichti, Wesllesley, Ont.; Mrs. Aaron Albrecht, Standish, Mich). In his youth he accepted Christ as his Savior. His greatest joy was to live for Him. He will long be remembered by all who knew him for his patience and friendly smile. He was a devoted husband and father, interested in the work of the Lord. His affliction affected his speech, so that he was unable to talk or read for the last 4 years. He greatly enjoyed having the Bible read to him and enjoyed Gospel singing very much. We commend him to Him who died for us and rose again, and we believe that our loss is eternal gain. He frequently expressed his readiness to depart this life and be with Christ. However, he expressed the desire to regain his speech so that he tell others the joy of salvation and entreat those who were near and dear to him who know not Christ. Three weeks ago, he became quite sick and gradually became weaker until his end came. God in his mercy peacefully called him home where he will suffer no more. Funeral services were conducted at the home by Bro. Edwin Albrecht and at the Riverside Mennonite Church by Bros. Peter Swartz and Noah Swartzendruber. Interment was in the cemetery near by.
