M Elaine Biggs Obituary

Published by Legacy Remembers on Aug. 18, 2025.
New Braunfels - M. Elaine Biggs [aka Mom] was born March 6, 1935, and passed on August 12, 2025, after a brief illness. She didn't care for her first name although it suited her. [Myrtle means love & beauty, peace, prosperity]. She chose instead to go by her middle name Elaine [meaning light, radiance]. She is survived by her children Diane [Randy] Weaver, Art Biggs, David Biggs, Ryan [Daisy] Biggs and daughter in law Cate Biggs, 15 grandchildren, 16 great grandchildren and 1 great, great granddaughter.

She was preceded in death by her husband Art, son Edmund, daughter Donna, daughters in law Stacie Biggs and Lori Biggs...those are the stats, but not her life.

I remember one Thanksgiving she asked me [David] to get the turkey out of the garage freezer so she could defrost it and discovered someone had stolen it...she didn't miss a beat and merely said they must have needed it more than we did. I have never forgotten her kindness towards people and have spent my life trying to live up to that standard of understanding and love towards others. The only thing I wanted in life was to be as good a parent to my children as she was to hers. What else is there to life really than to tread lightly on this earth and be kind...she led the way, and we try to follow her light.

We will all miss her. Goodbye Mom, see you later down the road...
