It is with heavy hearts and profound sorrow that we announce the passing of Harold Lee Wiggins, a beloved husband, father, grandfather, brother, and friend, who departed this world on October 16, 2026. Born on January 2, 1951, in Cedartown, Georgia, Harold was the cherished son of Bud and Ruby Wiggins. He was preceded in death by his parents and his dear brothers, Darrell and Danny Wiggins. 

Harold was a beacon of joy and warmth to everyone he encountered. For 28 years, he dedicated himself to his work as a truck driver for Pepsi Cola, followed by a decade of service with Penske Corp. After his well-earned retirement, Harold renewed his passion in collecting classic cars. As a car show enthusiast, his dedication and enthusiasm earned him numerous awards, a testament to his commitment and passion. 

A true family man, Harold's love for his family knew no bounds. He is survived by his devoted wife of 14 years, Janice Smith, his sister, Lynn Adams (Ricky); sisters-in-law, Janie Wiggins and Susan Wiggins; daughter, Tammy Martin. His legacy lives on through his beloved grandchildren, Tristan Cox, Sam Cox, and Dylan Hutcheson, as well as his stepsons, Shawn Owen, Caylon Smith (Kim), Kyle Smith, and BJ Smith; grandchildren, Bailey Lear, Brody Smith, Devin Smith, Christian Smith, Royce Smith, Valerie Murray, and the treasured "Littles," Abby Smith, Blake Smith, and Logan Smith. 

Harold found joy in the simple pleasures of life, from traveling and playing golf to attending NASCAR races and cheering for Alabama Football. His infectious smile and sense of humor brought light to every room, and he had a unique gift for making others feel welcome and valued. Harold's kindness and generosity were hallmarks of his character, leaving an indelible mark on countless lives. 

The family will receive family and friends Saturday, October 24, 2026, from 11:00 AM to 12:00 PM at the Gammage Funeral Home. The memorial service will be held in the Gammage Funeral Home Chapel on Saturday, October 24, 2026 at 12:00 PM in the afternoon with Rev. Roger Kiser and Ken Jolly officiating. Interment will follow the service in the Northview Cemetery.
