Patrick M. Higgins, age 64, of South Haven, Minnesota, died on Tuesday, December 9, 2025, at his home.

Memorial Services will be held 2:00 p.m. Wednesday, December 17, 2025, at Dingmann Funeral Care Chapel, Annandale with visitation beginning at 1:00 p.m.

Patrick Michael Higgins was born on May 11, 1961, in Fridley, Minnesota to Jerry and Barbara (Pawlik) Higgins. Raised in Fridley, Pat graduated from Fridley High School before embarking on a career in construction. As the proud owner of Dry Guys Exteriors, he poured his heart and expertise into his work. Over the years, Pat made his home in Albertville and Clearwater, before settling in his current home in rural South Haven. After many years together, on September 9, 2006, Pat married the love of his life, Angela Dietrich.

Pat's passions extended beyond his work and family; he found joy in the great outdoors. An avid hunter and fisherman, he enjoyed every moment spent camping and exploring nature, often with his loyal dogs by his side. He had a particular affinity for motorcycles and was an enthusiastic fan of hockey and football. Pat was happiest when surrounded by his family and friends, creating memories.

He is survived by his wife, Angie of South Haven; sons, Corey Bartlett of Karlstad and Curtis (Jessica) Dietrich of Coon Rapids; grandchildren, Theoden and Brand; mother, Barbara Higgins of Anoka; siblings, Lynn Mikkelson of Maple Grove, Joan Binczik, Scott (Lynn) Higgins, and Carol (Bill) Raeker, all of Coon Rapids; his beloved dog, Shelly and granddog, Rex; and many nieces, nephews, other family members and friends. Pat was preceded in death by his father, Jerry Higgins; an infant brother, Steven; and his brothers-in-law, Terry Mikkelson and David Binczik.
