HIGGINS, Eric Frances  - It is with deep sadness, that we announce the death of Eric Francis Higgins of Toronto, on June 10, 2024, at the age of 71.

After suffering a brain injury several years ago, Eric tenaciously overcame many health challenges but ultimately succumbed to brain and heart complications.

Eric was the proud father of Jennifer (Jeff) McCarroll, Amanda, and Michael; and grandfather to Madison McCarroll. He was the beloved brother of Charles, David, Gary, Sharon, Diane, and Maureen. Eric is survived by his former wife Marnie Higgins.

The family would like to extend our deep gratitude to Dr. A. Ein, the caring staff in the stroke and intensive care units at Humber River Hospital, and to Eric's dedicated PSW Florie Mar Ruaya.

A celebration of life will be held from 12 p.m. to 2 p.m., on June 23, 2024, at York Cemetery and Funeral Centre, 160 Beecroft Rd., Toronto
