Ronnie graduated from Central High School. He went on to serve his county from 1970 to 1976 in the United States Army, serving two tours. After returning home, he graduated from Lockyear Business College and Indiana Business College. He retired from the EVSC after 24 years as head custodian. Ronnie pastored multiple churches, including Dana Church of Nazarene for 20 years. He loved spending time with his family and enjoyed tossing the ball with his grandsons, hearing a good joke, holding his wife’s hand and stealing a kiss from time to time. His absolute favorite thing in the world was preaching the gospel of Jesus Christ. He was a husband, brother, father, grandfather and friend. Ronnie didn’t know a stranger, everyone was welcomed. He leaves a void in all of our lives with his passing. Ronnie was loved by everyone that ever met him.
Ronnie is survived by his wife, Kathy Faye Higgs; sons, Ronnie Lee Higgs Jr.; Roy Steven Higgs Sr. (Kristina), Bobby Joe Higgs; grandchildren, Ashlyn and Erika Higgs, Roy Jr., Jacob and Levi Higgs.
