DEATH CALLS BERT HYDE SUDDENLY. Pioneer Ranchman Of Lake Creek Dies At Home Monday Evening--Been A Resident of County for 54 Years.
A citizen of the Edwards community for more than fifty years, Bert H. HYDE passed away last Monday evening.
The deceased had been in poor health for some two years past, but had recently been doing his usual work around the ranch home. Monday evening he was preparing to do the evening chores. Shortly before five o'clock he came into the house after his milk pails, and sat down to take a few minutes to read a letter. He had no more than seated himself when he toppled to the floor. His wife who was present in the room, rushed to his side, but with only a moan or two, his life was gone.
Bert H. HYDE was the son of Andrew H. and Emmaline HYDE, and was born May 2, 1875. His parents came to Lake creek, Eagle county, in 1887, and settled on the ranch where Bert died. He never left the home place, succeeding to its ownership on the death of his parents, and as Hydehurst ranch it is a land mark in the history of the community.
Bert HYDE was a citizen of which any community could well be proud. A good neighbor, a devoted husband and father, a patriotic citizen, fanatically loyal to his country, he was well beloved by hundreds of people, who will sorely miss him in the days to come.
Funeral services were held from the Edwards hall Wednesday afternoon, the building being crowded with neighbors and friends who came sorrowfully to pay their last respects to the man they respected. Services were conducted by Rev. Milton BROWN, pastor of the Eagle Foursquare church, who read a short but impressive service. A quartette [sic.], composed of H. K. BROOKS, Melvin EATON, E. E. LEA, and George ANDRE sang two songs during the short service. The funeral bier was banked high with beautiful flowers, testimonials of respect from admiring friends. Following the services at the church, the body was taken to the Edwards cemetery, where his parents and children, who passed on before are buried, and laid to rest, the ceremony being in charge of the Andre Mortuary of Eagle.
February 5, 1913, Mr. HYDE was married to Gildie POWERS, and to this union five children were born--two sons and three daughters. Of these, four preceded their father in death. He is survived by the widow and a daughter, Ardyth Hyde CALHOUN, of the home; two sisters, Mrs. Laura LIVINGSTON of Eagle, Mrs. Mattie VAN HORN of McCoy; one brother, Walter HYDE of Red Cliff, himself too ill to be able to attend the funeral.
