*obituary
I am but a stranger here, Danger and sorrow stand
Heaven is my home, Round me on every hand;
Earth is a desert dear, Heaven is my fatherland,
Heaven is my home. Heaven is my home.
Dan A. Hively departed this earth for his heavenly home on April 10, 1935, after a faithful life of 78 years. He was born near Pineville on Sept 9, 1857. Mr Hively spent most of his life actively as pioneer and builder, among other things he did for the good of the community in which he lived, he helped build the railroad; as school teacher helped educate the children; helped build the Spring Creek Church and helped the needy whenever possible.
He united in holy wedlock to Susan Jane Hames on Nov 30, 1881 and this union was blessed with fourteen children.
Surviving him are his widow, Mrs Elvie Clark and Mrs Edith Langston of Calico Rock; Grover Hively of Alton, Texas; Mrs Cattie Farris of Delaware, Ark.; Walter Hively Palo Alto, Calif. and Mrs Myra Anna Deitreich of Central City, Neb. Also he leaves two brothers, Jeff Hively of Oklahoma and George Hively of California and one sister Miss Lydia Hively of Oklahoma.
For many years Mr Hively being exceptionally civic minded, served as justice of the peace in this community and his judgment was respected and sought after by all who knew him. However, his chief regard was the welfare of his family and his love for his family was unsurpassed except perhaps by their love for him and only his sudden passing prevented all his surviving children from being at his bedside during his waning hours, though separated by many miles. Those who could be were at his side to the last. Needless to say, he passed to his reward a Christian. He was converted in Sept. 1872 at Pleasant Valley, and later baptized and joined the Methodist Church at Spring Creek. He was laid to rest in the cemetery at the latter place by Revs. Villines and Jennings and a host of relatives and friends. All who knew him regret the passing of a true friend; his family of a kind and loving husband and father. May God be with us till we meet again.
