And one clear call for him,
There was no meaning at the bar

For though from out the
Bourne of time and place
The flood may bear him far,
He hopes to see his Pilot face to face
When he has crossed the bar.

Bintz, Wesley B.D.
In loving memory of Wesley B.D. Bintz who passed away two years ago on Saturday evening, July 1, 1972.
God took him home, it was his will,
But in our hearts, we love him still,
His memory is as dear today,
As in the hour he passed away.
Gone is the face we loved so dear,
Silent is the voice we loved to hear,
Too far away for sight or speech,
But not too far for thought to reach.
Sweet to remember him, who once was here,
And though absent, is just as dear.

He died beloved by all.
Someday we hope to meet him,
Someday we know not when,
To hold his hand in a Better land
Never to part again,
You are gone, but not forgotten, Dad.
Sadly missed by his wife, Minnie ; children; and grandchildren.

In loving memory of our Father, George M. Christman, who passed away in March, 1957, and our Mother Celia Christman, who passed away in August, 1971.
What would I give if I could say
Hello Father and Mother in the same old way,
To hear their voice and see their smile,
To sit and chat with them a while.
Their gentle face and patient smile,
With sadness we recall,
They had a kind word for each of us
And died beloved by all.
It broke our heart to give them up,
But they did not go alone,
The greatest part of us went with them
The day God called them home.
It doesn't matter where we go,
And no matter what we do,
There will always be something
To make us think of you.
Looking back with special memories
As life's weary road we trod,
We bless the years we had with them
And leave the rest to God.
We still wander out the road
To the graves not far away
Where we laid our beloved ones
In the last few years.
Sadly missed by son, Clarence Christman, and daughter, Estella Baker.

Mr. Heft received the sacrament of baptism at Saint John's Evangelical and Reformed Church (Middle Church) in March 1883 and at the age of fifteen was confirmed into the membership of that church. He remained a faithful and loyal member of this church, now known as Trinity United Church of Christ. On September 20, 1910, he was united in marriage with Leona Mary Hoffmeister, of Miltonsburg, and together they lived on a farm near Lewisville, all their lives. To this union were born six children, all of whom survive; Miss Beulah Heft, of Columbus; Mrs. John (Mildred) Hulme, of San Antonio, Texas; Rolland J. Heft, of Lewisville, Route 1; Urban L.

On his farm he found much joy tending the cattle and chickens, watching his crops grow and be harvested. On these green hillsides he had worked hard and now in his lengthening years found the peace and contentment that comes with constant faith in God. Funeral services were held at Bauer and Turner Chapel on Sunday afternoon, November 18th, at two o'clock, with his pastor, Reverend Marshall Cook officiating. Burial was in Friendship Cemetery at Lewisville.

Of our DAD we love so much.
