John T. Higgins Jr.

Born in Springfield, MA on March 1, 1961, he was a son of the late Lorraine and John T. Higgins, Sr. John proudly served his country as a member of the United States Army. He spent his career working as a skilled carpenter for many years.

In his spare time, John enjoyed fishing. He also liked playing golf, particularly at the Bayberry Hills Golf Course in West Yarmouth. Above all, John will be remembered for his big heart, and the way he cherished his family. He was a loving father and a wonderful papa. John will be sorely missed.

He is survived by his wife, Cynthia D'Amico; two children, Shawn and Jennifer Higgins; his grandson, Julian; three brothers, Timothy, David, and Mark Higgins; and a sister, Stormy Patrick.
