Since living in this community Mr. Schipper worked on the railroad section crew, was often employed as a plasterer and for the last twenty-five years or more he engaged in farming. For several years he drove the school bus on the north route when horse-drawn conveyances were still I use.
Mr. Schipper was reared in the Christian Reformed Church of his Holland parentage and had a deep reverence for spiritual values. As a God-fearing man, he fulfilled well his part as head of his household and gave his children a worthy spiritual heritage. He was preceded in death by his wife who passed away less than 3 months ago, a week after they had observed the Golden Wedding Anniversary.
