Dannie Wayne Jividen

CATLETTSBURG — The Lord called Dannie Wayne Jividen peacefully to his heavenly home on Thursday, July 26, 2012, surrounded by his loving and devoted family.  

Dannie, 62, resided in Catlettsburg, with his adoring and dedicated wife. He was a former resident of Putnam County, W.Va. Dannie was a born-again Christian, a 1967 graduate of Buffalo High School, a proud U.S. Army veteran and a retiree from the AEP Big Sandy plant.  

Dannie enjoyed outdoor activities, traveling, camping, dancing and spending time with his family and friends. There was never a stranger around Dannie, as he was a quick friend to anyone. He served the Lord using his God-given talents in helping his neighbors and family in need. God blessed Dannie with a gentle spirit, kind smile and sweet charm that warmed everyone’s heart.

He is survived by his best friend and wife of 40 years, Roxanne; a loving daughter, Brandie James and son-in-law, David of Horner, W.Va.; a loving son, Brandon of Kenai, Alaska; his precious grandkids whom he affectionately spoiled, Shelby Burn of Lexington, Brayden Jividen of Shreveport, La., and Dawson and Bradie James of Horner.

He was the devoted son of Rancel and Louise Jividen. Also surviving are a brother, Rancel Lee Jividen of Red House, W.Va.; a sister, Brenda Shamblin of Eleanor, W.Va.; his extended family, including numerous nieces, nephews, cousins, aunts, uncles and in-laws; and a host of friends who claimed him as their own.

The immediate family wishes to thank our family and friends for the cards, phone calls, visits and emails. They have been a great source of strength and comfort during this time.

Funeral services will be at noon today, July 30, 2012, at Raynes Funeral Home Eleanor Chapel in Eleanor by a longtime friend, Pastor Woody Willard. Burial will be in Haven of Rest Memory Gardens in Red House, with graveside military honors by James E. Marshall American Legion Post 187 of Winfield, W.Va.

In lieu of flowers, Dannie would have appreciated helping others in need. Please donate gifts of sympathy in his honor to Community Hospice, 1480 Carter Ave., Ashland, KY 41101 or another local hospice provider.
