7 Jul 1927 - Morning Sun News-Herald
David S. DeVor was born July I5, 1857, at Jacksonville, Pennsylvania, and died at the home of his daughter, Mrs. H.C. (Lydia) Hupp, northwest of Morning Sun, Iowa, July 1, 1927, where for some time he made his home, receiving there the kind attention and love of his children. He was 61 years, 11 months and 10 days of age when death
called him.
Mr. DeVor was united in marriage December 13, 1883, to Laura Bell Barrick. To this union five children were born: Mrs. Horace C. Hupp of Morning Sun; Earl Devore of Newport, Lynn of New London, George of Fort Selkirk, Yukon Territory, Alaska. One daughter, Rosalie Beryl, died March 15, 1906. The wife and mother passed away April 15, 1912.
There are also three brothers living, John Devore of Walnut Bottom, Pennsylvania and Joseph of Reading, Pennsylvania; Bradford of Milton, Colorado, and one sister, Mrs. Elmer Watson of Shippensburg, Pennsylvania.
In 1891 the family left Pennsylvania, and moved to Illinois, taking up their residence near Kirkwood, Illinois and continuing to live in or near that vicinity until 1909, when they moved, to Iowa, settling on the Joe Bates farm near Virginia Grove, this county, living there until the death of the wife and mother, after which he made his home among his children.
During the winter of 1882 he heard and answered the Gospel call, uniting with the church of God at Greens Spring, Penn., and remained a faithful member of that church until death. A man of strong faith, he found strength and courage in daily
communion with the Father through the written Word and was comforted in his old age in the promise of one who said "I will not leave you comfortless I will come unto you." By his own strength of character and as the fruit of a living faith, deceased became a useful and honorable man, an undefatigable worker, honest and trustworthy,
kind in the home, true to friendship, he has finished his earthly pilgrimage, has sown the seeds of life as men sow, and has gone to his eternal harvest.
The funeral services were held from the home of his daughter, Mrs. H. C. Hupp, Sunday, July 3, conducted by Rev. J. R. Hammond of Wapello, with John 11-25 as his text. Interment was at Center Grove Cemetery near Kirkwood, Illinois, the funeral party going overland by auto.
