      Obit: Herald of Truth, September 1890:

      "On the 18th of June, in Wilmot Twp., Waterloo Co., Ontario, Pre. Joseph L. Lichty, aged 65 years. He was a faithful laborer in the church and was in the ministry about 36 years. He leaves a sorrowing widow and 8 children, all married. On the 20th his mortal remains were consigned to their last resting place in Chr. Zehr's graveyard, on which occasion a very large number of friends and acquaintances met to look for the last time upon the face of him who had so often brought the sweet message of salvation. Funeral services by Joseph Ruby and John Gascho."
