Anthony "Tony" Higgins, 69, of Shelbyville, passed away Wednesday, May 10, 2023

at home with family. 

 

Born June 3, 1953 in Shelbyville, he was the son of William M. Higgins and Carol I.

(McComas) Higgins. He married Patricia "Patty" Kuhn of Shelbyville on May 10, 1987 and she survives.

Mr. Higgins was a lifelong resident of this area and graduated from Shelbyville High School  in 1971. He was a rural carrier for Fountain town Post Office, delivering mail for over 30 years. 

Tony enjoyed spending time with family and friends, mornings spent at Cracker Barrel, and  watching the wildlife on the farm on the Big Blue River. He had a passion for all things Beatles, Indy 500, March Madness, and golf. His wit and humor lifted our spirits and he will be dearly missed.
