Aaron N. Houser
A Tribute To Aaron N. Houser Who Was Called to His Reward
After a Well Spent Life
Aaron N. Houser was born on the old homestead in Miami Co., Ohio, January 27, 1826, and passed peacefully away at the home of his son Franklin Houser, January 26, 1899, aged 72 years 11 months and 29 days.
When in youth he gave his heart to God and was one of the charter members of the Bethel Methodist Church, and ever since that time has lived a true christian life.
In the year 1852 he was united in marriage to Miss Eliza A. Inskeep, with whom he shared the joys and sorrows of life for nearly a half century. To this union was born six sons and one daughter, all of whom are left to morn the loss of a loving father.
In the year 1866 he organized the first Sabbath School held in Bethel church and was elected Superintendent, and, with the exception of a few years has since held that office, and discharged his duty faithfully. For over thirty years he went in and out before us as leader of our Class, and also very faithfully held the different offices of the Church.
For the last three years disease had disabled him to such an extent, that he was not permitted to regularly meet with us in public worship.
At times he was a great sufferer but bore it all patiently and never was heard to murmur or complain. He was often heard to say "Only waiting until the Master calls." On Thursday morn at early dawn, the summons came, and his spirit took its flight to that "sun bright clime," of which he so often sang, there to dwell with his loved companion who preceded him a few short months ago.
Those weary limbs are now at rest, those lips which spoke words of comfort are silent, yet although he be asleep his works will follow him, and ever dwell in the hearts of those who have been associated with him in the work for the Master.
Servant of God well done
Thy glorious warfare past,
The battle fought, the race is won,
And thou art crowned at last.
