Harvey O. Van Horn, Sr., a deacon in the Lost Creek Seventh Day Baptist Church, was born and died at Lost Creek. He was the son of Newton J. and Zeruah Randolph Van Horn. In 1894, he accepted Christ as his Savior and became a member of the church, which he loved and served through the remainder of his life.
He was united in marriage to Kathryn B. Stout, who survives. Also surviving are six of their seven children, Mrs. Milton (Mary) Van Horn of Milton, Wis., having preceded him in death. There are three sons and three daughters: Edward of Clarksburg, Harvey O. Jr., of Morgantown, Lewis of Charlestown, W. Va.; Mrs. Robert (Leola) Bond, Middlebury Center, Pa., Mrs. Joseph (Lela) Gerstner, Weston, W. Va., and Miss Betty Van Horn, Lost Creek. There are 17 grandchildren and 5 great-grandchildren. A brother, W. Burl Van Horn, and a sister, Mrs. Orpha Davis, both of Hamlin, W. Va., also survive.
His cheerful, optimistic faith, his love of the beauty of nature in his native hills, his loyalty to his Lord and the church were always an inspiration to those who knew him, especially in the last years of suffering and pain.
Funeral services were conducted in his home church by the Rev. Duane L. Davis, and burial was in the church cemetery. D. L. D.
