In 1907 he married Margaret Uhrich who died on March 21, 1943. In the same year he married a second time, namely to Christina Eskam. In 1913 the deceased came with his family to America, where they settled in Scottsbluff. With the exception of five months which the deceased spent in the State of Washington, he lived the entire time in Scottsbluff. Brother Eckhardt was a tailer by profession from which profession he retired several years ago. During the last five years the deceased suffered. His illness worsened in the last weeks and he was called into eternity on Monday, February 23, 1953. He reached the age of 70 years, 3 months and 27 days. Surviving him along with his sorrowful wife are four daughters and three sons: Bertha Bretthauer in Sunnyside, Wash., John, Adolph, Frieda Krentz and Wilma Kulhanek, all four of Scottsbluff, Florence Neiman and Walter in Minneapolis, Minn., as well as five stepchildren: Emma Bolzer in Douglas, Wyo., Theo.

Brother Eckhardt was converted early in life to his God and Master Jesus Christ and tried to faithfully live up to his teachings. He was also very active in the brotherhood as long as his health allowed. He was not a member very long of our Salem Congregation. The funeral service was delivered on February 27 in Salem Congregational Church and his remains were laid to rest at Fairview Cemetery.
Your way is often in darkness,
In deep waters often is your path,
So that we often must recognize:
How wonderful is your advice,
Light and peace often follow night and fear,
Then, Father, You e the glorious end!
