He was preceded in death by his grandparents.

He is survived by his two daughters, Jordan Heins of Centerton, Arkansas and Eboni Heins of Anderson, Missouri; one brother David Heins and wife Andrea of Arkansas. Half brothers Joseph and Michael Heins of Pineville, Missouri, Adam Lewke of Goodman, Missouri and Ethan Taylor of Noel, Missouri; father Donald Heins and wife Kathy Heins of Pineville, Missouri; mother Patricia Taylor of Lanagan, Missouri and grandchildren Olyver Morrison and Dario Rodriguez-Heins.
