Later the family moved to the Asbury Farm where he could attend school in Mason City, then they farmed near Emery, Iowa.
He was married on Jan. 29, 1930, to Beatrice Sears, the daughter of Clem and Emma “Stokes” Sears. They began their life farming north of Cartersville, Iowa, for 50 years before moving to Mason City in 1990. They observed their 68th wedding anniversary in January 1998.

Viva loved remembering the old days; his memory of them was shared by many over the years, having old pictures and books of bygone years. He kept figures like a mathematician. Some of his favorites were of selling separated cream to Swift and Co., for 20 cents a pound, extra eggs at 11 cents a dozen, and hens for 15 cents a pound. In 1931 the grocery bill for June was $6.24, 10 gallons of gas was $1.56, and in 1937 he bought their first tractor, a John Deere B, for $750, and 50 gallons of tractor fuel was $3.25. Viva also raised livestock common to the farm such as milking cows, hogs, chickens and his dogs. He bought one of the first hay balers in the country that would have two men tying the bales with wire. He did custom baling for more than 30 years.
In 1942, he was elected as Owen Township assessor at a salary of $4 a day, then becoming a part-time field assessor for the county. He did this for 35 years along with his farming and custom work.
During the war years, his fields of hemp were cut and delivered to the plants at Emery and Rockford for making rope. He loved his gardens of vegetables and flowers, with gladiolus being his specialty followed by his roses. Viva shared his life with many friends and family through the years. Sunday afternoon ballgames with neighbors in the pastures, fishing and Saturday nights in Cartersville for the street dances and listening to country music were a favorite pastime. We never tired of hearing about his past and the history of Mason City and the surrounding area. Viva was active in the Farm Program and was elected to the township committee where he served with the ASCS for 20 years. He and his wife were mostly homebodies but they enjoyed a trip to California and two to Florida with family and friends.
