With broken hearts, we announce the sudden passing of Wesley Gilbert Wiggins on December 16^th, 2020, at the tender age of 27. He will be sadly missed and forever remembered by his Mother Diana, Father Stewart (Belinda), Sister Nicole (Andrew), Grandfather Ken (Josie) and step-sisters, cousins, aunts, uncles, extended family and friends. Pre-deceased by his grandparents Donna Rhora, Helen and Gilbert Wiggins and Uncle Bruce Sibbett.

We knew Wesley was going to be a natural athlete when his first word was “Ball”. He ran before he could crawl, had a twinkle in his eyes that matched his big smile and warned trouble was brewing. He was a prankster with a big heart who grew into a caring, empathetic man who never faltered in his love of his family and stirring things up. We love you forever.

Wesley’s family would like to extend their gratitude to Glenn at Niagara Region Master Keys, the attending emergency personnel and Rev. Russ Myers for their compassion and support at such a difficult time.

Family and friends will be welcomed at Lampman Funeral Home on Tuesday, December 22^nd, 2020 from 4pm-7pm. Please call the funeral home to make an appointment at 905-892-4701 during business hours.  You must have an appointment to gain entrance to the funeral home. Masks are mandatory at this time. A private family interment will take place at Hillside Cemetery in Fenwick.

In lieu of flowers please send donations in Wesley’s memory to The Boys and Girls Club of Niagara or KidSport Niagara
