    Michael “Mike” Wiggins of Pulaski, TN passed away on Saturday, March 7, 2026. He was born in England on February 15, 1951, and was 75 years old. Mike was an excellent husband, father, and Papa. He was a proud veteran of the United States Airforce. Mike was known for his quick wit, sharp sarcasm, and unmistakable sense of humor. Whether it was through one of his famously goofy T-shirts or a perfectly timed joke, he had a way of making others smile. He earned his master’s degree in history and devoted his career to teacher. He was a devoted fan of Doctor Who, enjoyed photography, and had a deep appreciation for music and classic cinema, especially silent films. He also had a soft spot for the wonderfully terrible -- never turning down the chance to watch a “bad” movie. Above all, Mike loved his family and cherished the time he spent with them. He also had a special place in his heart for his beloved cat, Oliver.

    A visitation will be held on Saturday, March 14, 2026, from 9:00am to 11:00am at Bennett-May & Pierce Funeral Home and Crematory.
