Saturday, July 1st, David Siguaw died at his farm home in South Olga.
His health had been poor for some time past and last spring he had a severe attack of the flu from he never really recovered. A week before he died, he contracted s cold which developed into pneumonia and all that medical and loving care could do was done, the end came peacefully at 8:15pm.

With his wife and children at his bedside his last thoughts being, as through his whole life, for the welfare and happiness of his loved ones. He talked to them of their future without him as long as he had the strength to do so.
