Hyginus attend high school of Yap and graduated with his high school diploma in 1980. He later on attended Micronesian Occupational College, where he received a certificate of Achievement  in Construction Carpentry Technology, in May 1982. 

Hyginus decided to travel to USA, lived in Corsicana, Tx, where he further his career, he received his associates in applied science. 

He worked at the college, as he was attending there.  Later on worked at Morgan warehouse for few years and then, started at Guardian Glass warehouse where he worked for many years. Hyginus was a hard worker, loving father to Thomas C. Finigmow,  Heather L. P. Gathrang, and Hyginus jr tamrow Gathrang. He was devoted husband to Roxane Gathrang. He was Amazing Grandfather to Remy Nathaniel Burcham, who mother is Katie Mario, his daughter in law. Hy believed, family is everything, he battled some obstacles along the way. But overcame so many difficult ones, emotionally, financially,  spiritually, mentally. He believed in God. He grew stronger in his relationship with lord, in 2021 and has been faithful since then. Along the way he came across so many souls, who gave him opportunities in life that made him see brighter days. He loved the ranch, where he took care of the cattle and landscaping and construction work as well. He managed his best to attend church and bible study, with his busy schedule.  Would be  times he would run late or missed a days, he would open his Bible and began to read and praised god. Hy did struggled with alcohol in his early years but in 2020 he changed his life around. For that his family will always be PROUD of him. Regardless of his battles Hyginus always showed up. The greatest blessing is seeing him BEAT the struggle of alcoholism. Seeing him light up when he talked about god. He wasn't perfect but he was perfect in his family eyes. He had heart of Gold and a beautiful soul.
