He is survived by his wife, Ethel; son, Dwight, and daughter-in-law, Edith; two granddaughters, Truenea and Ivalue Bingaman; five sisters - Sylvia Wells of Memphis, Mo., Ethel Kirkhart of Cantril, Iowa, Lula Hedge of Oskaloosa, Iowa, Leana Strait of Bloomfield, Iowa and Greta Rider of Keosauqua, Iowa; and a twin brother, Donald Bingaman, of Douds, Iowa.

Preceding him in death were his parents and one brother, Charles.

He was a member of the Lebanon United Methodist Church. He was an energetic farmer always ready to help in time of need.

A Tribute:
A father laid aside his tasks
To seek Eternal rest;
And we who now are left behind
We'll know that he is blest.

No longer need he bear the strift,
That comes to living souls;
No longer need he sail the seas
Where foam flecked billows roll.

But he's at rest in peace with Christ
In that eternal land;
Where love is paramount to life
By God's most kind command.
