If 60 years of a conscientious discharge of religious and moral duties, joined to the endearing and affectionate domestic ties of husband, father, son, brother and friends, shall claim from our all wise and beneficent Creator, reward and mercy, he now enjoys all the heavenly felicity promised by the Gospel of Christ His life was a life of piety and usefulness, and to the last moments of that life, his faith and confidence was unshaken in Christ, the Son of God. He left a numerous progeny as well as numerous friends, to mourn his departure, 10 children, 79 grandchildren, and 44 great-grandchildren."

    His gravestone inscription in the Common Burial Ground, Newport, RI, reads: "Having for 60 years manifested by his daily walk and conversation that he was a disciple of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, faithful in the discharge of his duty as a Christian, especially in the office of a deacon, to which he was early called by the 2nd Baptist Church, under the pastoral care of Elder Gardiner Thurston. The hoary head is a Crown of Glory when found in the ways of righteousness."
