Text of obituary:

✝ Lebenslauf von Prediger Johann Jantzen…. Während seiner Abwesenheit war die Frau seines Neffen Cornelius Jantzen gestorben. Er traf aber einen Tag vor ihrem Begräbnisse hier ein und hielt dann auf demselben im Trauerhause eine einfache, zu Herzen gehende Ansprache über den 39. Psalm, aus dem er uns die Pilgergedanken eines Christen recht eindringlich vorführte. Er ahnte wohl nicht, daß dieses die letzte Amtshandlung in seinem 47 Jahre langen Gemeindedienst sein sollte…. [Johannes K. Penner]


English translation:

He arrived here the day before her funeral and gave a simple, heartfelt address on the 39th Psalm, from which he quite emphatically presented the pilgrim thoughts of a Christian to us. He probably had no idea that this would be the last official act of his 47 years of congregational service.… [Johannes K. Penner]
