His sisters Muriel and Hilda were members of the Planning Committee for
the 2002 Bigelow Reunion in Canning, NS. He attended some of the reunion
events.



It was David's brother Bruce who died about a month and half ago, and
with that obituary notice I gave the family lineage. Their sisters,
Irene and Muriel, were both on the 2002 Reunion Planning Committee. Both
brothers attended various parts of the 2002 Reunion.
