Rev. J. K. Warkentin died April 14 in his office at Clinton, Okla. of a heart attack. He was born five miles southwest of Corn. When he was nine his father passed away and the family moved to Corn. As a young man he received the call of the Lord to go out and preach the Word. He had been pastor of our church here at corn as well as of the First Mennonite, Baptist and other churches in Oklahoma, Texas, and California. He had God's Word in his heart as well as in his memory.
