 The funeral service was conducted by his pastor at the Baptist church,in the presence of a large company of his fellow citizens. The sermonwas based on Acts 11:24. ìHe was a good man, full of the Holy Spirit,and of faith.î The pastor spoke of his good parts in the home life,civic life, and church life, Not alone in these things did he excel,but as husband, father, and business man he was above reproach. Oncoming to Howard he became a leading factor in the life anddevelopment of our city, and as an architect and builder had leftmonuments of his wisdom and good judgment in some of our bestbuildings, conspicuous among which are the Baptist church, the HowardNational Bank building, and the Metropolitan hotel. It can truthfullybe said of him: ìHe was a wise master-builder, not alone in temporalthings, but in spiritual and eternal things as well.î Having servedthe Master so well and so long, he has now entered into that ìrestwhich remain for the people of God.î
