Sean Higgins, a dedicated delivery driver and beloved family member, passed away on September 6, 2025, at St. Thomas West, at the age of 58. Born on October 25, 1966, in the sun-kissed shores of Redondo Beach, California, Sean led a life that was filled with warmth, laughter, and a steadfast commitment to his work and family.
A proud high school graduate, Sean exemplified a strong work ethic in every delivery, always with a cheerful demeanor and a kind word for those he met along the way. His colleagues admired his resilience and dedication, which made him a dependable figure in their bustling daily lives.
Sean's warmth and compassion extended far beyond his professional life. He is survived by his loving sisters, Alison Atkinson and Suzanne Knowles, who cherished their memories of laughter-filled family gatherings and shared moments that will remain etched in their hearts forever. William Atkinson, his brother-in-law, was not only family but also a cherished friend, and together they enjoyed many moments of camaraderie that further solidified their bond.
As we remember Sean, we celebrate the joy he spread through his actions and the love he imparted to those around him. He is deeply missed and will always hold a vital place in the hearts of his family and friends. His legacy of kindness will remain a beacon of light in our lives, guiding us to cherish and support one another as he did so beautifully.
