Picture a boy of eight or so a barefoot boy, with dark eyes, stubby nose
and laughing face; a boy whose father had already taught hima creed, simple
enough for a boy to udnerstand -- yet profound enough for the most learned man to live by. That cree, " Do unto others as you would have other do unto you,"or in a boy's simple language, treat others as you would like to be treated. Such a boy it was who left his home in Mt. Airy, N.C. in 1888 with his parents and three younger brothers and sisters to come to utah to make their home, leaving behind home, friends and loved ones for their new found faith.
The hardships of that first winter in Salem, Utah, left memories and
impressions on his young mind that were never to leave him -- and took wasy the life of his infant sister, Ellen.
After a home was established it was a little easier, but life at best was
hard in those pioneer days and this little boy learned early in life to adapt
himself to any circustance and to make his time and effort count.
As he grew into manhood, a fine upstanding young manhood, he grew also
infaith in the priesthood, until the time arrived for him to marry. He chose
for his bride a lovely dark eyed girl, Harriet Buckley by name, a daughter of
Henry and Sarah Ann Buckely, who home was in Provo. This union was to end
shortly in the tragic death of Harriett and her twin babies in premature birth.
The trial of re-adjusting was very difficult until he met a sweet blue eyed girl by the name of Nora Mitchell, youngest daughter of David A. and
Christianna Mitchell who was to be his life long companion and the mother of
his ten children. Their live was very actively spent in farming and church
work and in shaping the lives of their ten children. Their whole interest was for them. With the same creed he wished to inspire uppermost in their lives. Planted early in their young minds, " Do unto others as you would have others do unto you."
As his children grew up and found employment elsewhere, they gradually
drifted away from the old home town of Payson, until most of them finally
settled in Salt Lake City.
After his retirement they followed and made their home also in Salt Lake.
Finally he had reached his goal. A good family reared , a home of his own.
Not a pretentious home, but comfortable and cozy and above all, his own home.
Here he would spend his reclining years, doing the work he loved, the work of his Heavenly Father, and so he became active again in the High Priest
Quorum, and soon called along with his dear wife to fill a mission in Wells
Stake which, to his great atisfaction, he was able to complete. But then,
tragedy came again, his health failed and suffering became his lot. Suffering which he bore with the patience and fortitude exemplified by his creator.
Now he has left us. Called again on still another mission. His suffering ended, his soul at peace. His was a life of self-sacrifice and devotion to his family and his beliefs in life. A life not rich in wordly goods but filled with the richness of understanding andd love. His was a life which combined all things good as he saw them and as the God he so unceasingly loved gave him the strenghth reach and to bring into being.David Rufus Hiatt: m.
