Obituary of Bryon Higgs
Peacefully with his family at his side, Bryon Carl Higgs, 74, of Elmira, Ontario, passed from this life into the next on December 18, 2017 at Hamilton General Hospital after a brief illness.
Bryon taught high school at Elmira District Secondary School for almost all of his career and was nominated as Distinguished Teacher of the year. Bryon was an accomplished musician who played piano, clarinet and saxophone and spent many happy years playing clarinet in the Waterloo Concert Band. Throughout his life Bryon thoroughly enjoyed gardening and became very accomplished in this area. In retirement Bryon took on the role of a financial advisor, tirelessly researching the markets and very successfully managing prosperous investment accounts for family members and friends.
Bryon is survived by Janet, his loving wife of 50 years, daughters Heather (Stephen) and Kelly (Blaise), son Chris (Vivian), and beloved granddaughters Maya and Elena. Bryon will be fondly remembered by many friends locally and around the world and by his former students. Bryon will also be sadly missed by his two collies: Ghillie and Brodie who he thoroughly enjoyed walking on the Kissing Bridge Trail.
Bryon was preceded in death by his father, Carl Higgs, his mother, Jean Allen, his stepmother, Peggie Higgs.
Bryon’s family would like to thank the Neurology team at Hamilton General Hospital as well as the ICU East Nurses for the exceptional care they provided to Bryon in his final days and for the support they provided to the family during this difficult period.
A memorial visitation will be held on Thursday, December 21, 2017 from 7-9 p.m. at Dreisinger Funeral Home, Elmira. A celebration of Bryon’s life will be held on Friday, December 22, 2017 at 1:30 p.m. at Elmira Mennonite Church with a reception to follow. As an expression of sympathy, memorial donations to Mennonite Central Committee or Elmira Lions Club Memorial Forest would be appreciated by the family.
