February 10, 1936 --- September 1, 1937

Gary Keith Bige, son of Mr. and Mrs. Harold Bige, was born in Webster City Feb. 10, 1936, and entered the Heavenly Home Sept. 1, 1937, at the age of 1 year, 6 months and 22 days. In addition to his parents he also leaves to mourn his death his grandparents, Mr. and Mrs. Harry Davis, of Stanhope, and Mr. Ollie Bige of Woolstock, and many other relatives and friends.

Although he had been so short a time on earth, he had brought much joy and comfort to the hearts of his mother and father. His happy, winsome ways brought gladness every day and broadened and enlarged the whole of the home life. His dear ones are left with fragrant memories of his brief stay with them and though their hearts are now burdened with grief they are thankful to the Heavenly Father that they were permitted to have him for a little while for all of life has been enriched through his innocent, sweet personality.

His little garments have now an added worth, his toys have become more precious, the words he spoke are engraved upon the hearts of his mother and father and his personal characteristics will never be forgotten as long as life shall last.

The Christian hope of immortality is very precious and though his dear ones cannot understand why such great sorrow should be theirs, they believe that in the coming years, they will know the meaning of their tears and then they will understand that behind all this sorrow is the infinite love of the Heavenly Father.
