A Catholic all his life and always faithful to his duties and obligations, he received the grace to depart this world well fortified with all the sacrement and rites of his church, which he always loved and respected.
In the year 1884 he came to America and settled in Otoe County, Ne., until the year 1890. There he was united in marriage to Wilhelmina Karsten. In 1890 he came with his family to Gosper County, where they made their home near Smithfield. He was blessed in marriage with eleven children, five sons preceding him in death.

During his life he endured many hardships and sustained several serious accidents yet never complained and apparently enjoyed good health. Three years ago his health began to fail and from September 1935, he was bedfast with many complications, especially heart and kidney troubles which finally caused his death.
