Stephen Harris Wiggins, 53, of Mildred, Texas, passed away on December 17, 2024, surrounded by his loving family. Stephen was born on December 30, 1970, in Corsicana, Texas to Robert and Glenda Sue Wiggins. Growing up, he was very close with his one and only younger brother, Shannon. Stephen was a loving and devoted husband to his wife and best friend, Dawn, who he married on January 7th, 1994. Spending 30 wonderful years together with their four children, Shaye Turner, Russell Turner, Emily Wiggins, and Shelby Pillow.
He and Dawn share eight grandchildren whom he loved dearly. He was very active in the grandchildren's various extracurricular activities.
He was a true outdoorsman who loved hunting, fishing, camping, and riding side-by-sides mudding with friends. He also had a love for sports from growing up playing Baseball, Basketball and Football to watching College Football games. He stayed active and spent many days outside playing softball and golf.
There is nobody that could fill the hearts of his family the way Stephen did. In the blink of an eye, he was there to do whatever he could to help his friends, family, and community. A lifetime of experiences filled with good menagerie of skills from craftmanship, working on cars, to 20 years on the Mildred Volunteer Fire Department. He always did whatever he could to help out when his friends and family were in need.
Stephen was employed with Morgan Corp. for 30 years as of September this year, where his presence made an impact in many lives.
Visitation will be held from 6-8pm Friday, December 20, 2024, at Griffin-Roughton Funeral Home. Funeral Service will be 10:00am Saturday, December 21, 2024, at Northside Baptist Church. Burial will follow at Hamilton-Beeman Cemetery.
