Patrick H. Livesay died at his home at Galatia Sunday at 3 o'clock p.m., aged 73 years and 9 months. Mr. Livesay has been in poor health for some time and has suffered considerably from Brights disease.
He leaves a wife and three sons and three daughters besides a host of relatives and friends to mourn his death. The sons are Randall of Anadarko, Jack of Blanchard, Okla., and James of Hobart. The three daughters are Mrs. J.R. Hall of this city, Mrs. Frank Gustin of Galatia and Mrs. E.B. Whaley of Great Bend. All were present at the funeral except James who could not make proper connections to get here. Mr. Livesay was born in Pennsylvania afterward moving to Iowa from which state he moved to Kansas with his family in 1885. They located on a farm near Galatia and a few years ago moved to Galatia.
Funeral services were held at the M.E. church at Galatia Monday at 2:30 p.m. conducted by Rev. Laird. Mr. Livesay was a member of the Odd Fellows lodge for 22 years and members of that order acted as pall bearers at the funeral. Interment was made in Fairway cemetery.
He was a devoted husband and a kind and indulgent father; to his sisters a tender brother, to his friends the soul of fellowship. But the greatest of all was he as a man. And as a man it is that those who knew him best most love to contemplate him. He believe in the fatherhood of God and the brotherhood of man. He believed that the man who scatters flowers in the pathway of his fellow men, who lets into dark places of life the sunshine of human sympathy and human happiness, is following in the footsteps of his Master.
His cheerful, helpful life; his devotion to his wife and family and kindness to everybody will long longer as a fragrant memory in the home which his presence brightened and which death has now darkened. Though he is gone his record has been made and with remain with us as a lasting treasure. His life was gentle but like the still waters in was deep. In his heart of hearts he carried those he loved, and his hand was never weary, his step never failed in caring for and ministering to those who were in any way dependent upon him.
