Manly Milton Bigalk

Manly Milton Bigalk was born May 6, 1907, and died Sept. 9, 1919, aged 12 years, 4 months, 3 days. He had been sick for two weeks and one day but he bore his suffering patiently and without murmuring. He will be missed in the home by his parents and we shall miss him in the Sunday school where he loved to be, and where his sweet voice was often heard in song. He leaves to mourn, father, mother, sister and brother, grandparents, and many other relatives and friends.

He is safe in the arms of Jesus where sorrow and suffering are no more. The funeral-services were conducted by Rev. J. H. Siewert in the Evangelical church Friday afternoon. The many beautiful flowers showed the high esteem in which he was held by his many friends. Interment was made in Cedar Hill cemetery.

Card of Thanks.

Albert Bigalk and Family.
