Wilda Geraldine Higgins

After 93 years on this earthly home, Wilda Geraldine Higgins became forever alive on April 2, 2015, as she became absent from the body and present with the Lord.
She was preceded in death by her beloved husband of 65 years, Arnold; young son, Hartley Higgins; parents Francis and Alta; brothers Leonard, Hobert & Glenn; son-in-law Gary Grimm; great-granddaughter Marinna Hicks; and loving friend Claire Llewellyn.
