February 10, 1899. Rossie died eight months later on October 10, 1900, which he preceded him to
"The Land of the Blest".
He was a believer in the religion of Jesus Christ, but had never personally embraced it. During his
last sickness he deeply felt the need of a savior many times since giving testimony on March 17,
1912, he died triumphantly in the faith. On Tuesday following his conversion, he requested
membership in the Friends Church. He bore his affliction with great patience and Christian
fortitude. While this hour of deepest shadow is passing over the bereaved one has entered the
land of where there is no pain.
David D. left his wife Philena and five children and five grandchildren. Also three brothers and five
sisters, besides a host of other relatives and friends to mourn their loss.
The funeral services were held on Wednesday morning at the Friends Church in Amboy, Indiana.

nurse a few days before his death he had a glimpse of heaven and singing some of his favorite
hymns, "At the Cross", "Jesus Lover of My Soul", "I'm Coming Home". The latter he sang on the
