Born August 12, 1956, in Morgan County, he was a son of the late Willard Rigsby and Maxine Marie Lewis Rigsby. In addition to his parents, he was preceded in death by his loving wife, Kathaleen "Kathy" Back Rigsby, and one brother, Larry Rigsby.

He was a self-employed logger and a member of Frenchburg First Church of God. A.C. enjoyed deer and ginseng hunting, playing cards, listening to music, and taking his weekly trips to Walmart. Most of all, he loved going to church and spending time with his family. He will be greatly missed by all who knew and loved him.

We met A C in the hospital in Morehead and am sorry to hear of his passing. I was his roommate and he made quite an impact on me and my wife´s life. We got the privilege of meeting his two Neices. We´ve prayed for and thought of A C many times since.
Love and Prayers for family and friends
