Gospel Herald - May 1938
Steiner, Noah C., son of Daniel and Magdalena (Basinger) Steiner, was born in Wayne Co., near Orrville, Ohio, Sept. 2, 1871; died near the place of his birth, May 10, 1938; aged 66 y. 9 m. 8 d. On Oct. 1, 1899, he was united in marriage with Sarah Geiser. Since this union was not blessed with children, they opened their hearts and their home to four homeless children, Treasa and Nicholas Pennitti of Youngstown, Ohio, were admitted into their home in 1915; Ellen and Irene Geiser, the nieces, in 1919. On July 11, 1915, he was ordained to the office of deacon, in which capacity he faithfully served until death. During the building of the Crown Hill Church, and also the Mennonite Old People's Home, he served as a very active member of the building committees, and was deeply interested in each of the buildings. As a trustee of the church and cemetery, he labored faithfully and untiringly for its comfort and beauty. On Saturday, May 7, with his usual vigor, he planned to rise early and go about his daily duries; but on attempting to rise he was stricken with apoplexy, became unconscious, and remained so until death. When a young man he confessed his Lord and united with the Crown Hill Mennonite Church, in which faith he faithfully served until death. His kind and friendly disposition won to himself many friends both young and old. He leaves to mourn his departure his companion, the 4 foster children, 3 brothers, 1 sister, nieces and nephews, and many friends. Funeral services were held May 12 at the Crown Hill Church, conducted by Brethren S. E. Allgyer and E. F. Hartzler. Text, 11 Cor. 5:1. Burial in Crown Hill Cemetery
