We are celebrating the life of Tip Biggs who was born on August 18, 1939 to Robert Eugene Biggs and Martha Amelia Russell in Azen, Missouri. Tip fought strongly against chronic illness, and passed away exactly as he wished, at his cherished home with his wife by his side, at the age of 80. He was preceded in death by his parents, two brothers and two sisters.

Tip leaves behind his wife of 58 years, Maureen OBrien Biggs; his children Chris, Erik and Adrienne; and his beloved grandchildren. A life-long educator with a broad array of creative outlets, Tip leaves behind many students, friends, and extended family who enjoyed his wit, wisdom, and colorful stories.

Memorials are encouraged to the Willa Cather Foundation in his name. 413 N Webster Street, Red Cloud, NE 68970. Phone: (866) 731-7304
