His will leaves $150000 to Life Line Mission in San Francisco and $110000 to Messiah College in Grantham Pennsylvania both run by the Brethren in Christ Church. He also left $1000 to more than a dozen friends. He had worked at the Pacific Coast Stock Exchange for years and kept cash for tips. The Life Line Mission’s finances are strained, and the estate funds are said to have been used to cover its debts after moving to a new hotel. He never married and had no immediate family, though the mission counted some 40 residents as his extended family.
