Michael Bignell Memorial Fund

Thank you to all the family and friends who have expressed their deepest sympathy's to us through the passing of our father, Michael Bignell.  My brothers and I have started a fundraising campaign to assist in the unexpected expenses that followed for the funeral service.  Our father was a humble and kind man who enjoyed a good laugh. bad movies, and a simple sandwich.  He taught his 5 sons how to show respect, work hard, and help others.  I could never due his legacy justice through so few words, but those who knew him best knew he felt greatful for all his experiences lived and friendships made over 68 short years.

Unfortunately, over the last year, his cognitive thinking slowly dimished affecting certain life decisions that would affect the loved ones left behind.  During this time, my father lapsed on his life insurance policy premiums cancelling out the financial assistance needed for such an event.  This personable campaign is to assist my mother (Joyce) and my 4 brothers (Jared, Aron, Eliot, & Max) in our family's shared expense of laying our dad to rest.  

Any donations will truly be appreciated as we will apply any funds raised to this expense.  

Thank you all family and friends that are here to support us and keeping us in your thoughts and prayers.  God bless.
