Richard Higley

So sorry to hear of Mr. Higley's passing. I remember him as a fine Lector at IHM Church in Lansing. It was appropriate that his career was in adoption/foster care. I could see him doing that very well. Condolences to the Higley family. May the angels sing thee to thy rest.

Dick was a very kind man. I met him and Pat when I cared for Pat through hospice. I visited him a couple times after he moved to Great Lakes. I marvelled at his weekly dinner parties. He always seemed to have so much energy. He always smiled and was so gracious. We shared a love of rhubarb and good cherry tomatoes. My condolences to the family.

Dick and Pat taught me much about hospitality, service to others, and faithful love of God. Even in his failing year, Dick invited Jerry and me to lunch at the "big house." What a joy he was! Eternal memory, dear brother, worthy of all blessedness.

Pat and I were classmates . I played her grandmother in the High School Paly "Don't Take My Penney " Pat was Penney . I met Dick when he first came to the Newman Club and introduced him to my
classmate . He seemed ready for the introduction . He later became President of the MSU Newman Club
and Pat became treasurer . When they arrived at a decision to marry we joked that it was a fine
set-up for the President to abscond with the Treasurer . We ...

What a wonderful life long, loyal, friend to my parents and our whole family. He has been a special person in my life since my earliest childhood memories. He has always had time for children and teased and joked with them. My son Stephen(Stevie) sees him as a bonus grandpa and will miss him greatly. We consider him to be family. My the angels welcome you to Paradise...

Thinking of you all in this sad time. Virtual hugs to all my cousins. Grateful for the memories. His large smile and glint in his eye when he was about to tease. His living out his faith. No doubt he is home in heaven.

Praying for you.
