Connie Sue Wigger Obituary - Visitation & Funeral Information

Connie Sue Wigger, 83, of Evansville, IN, passed from this world to her heavenly home on Thursday, June 16, 2022. She will be remembered for her love of family, storytelling, music, games, and laughter. Connie was born in Evansville, in 1938, to Earl and Ruth Carter. She graduated from Benjamin Bosse High School in 1956. She was a lifelong homemaker, pouring her love of life into her children and all of those who were fortunate enough to know her. Together with her husband, Robert “Bob” Wigger, of Evansville, she retired to Cadiz, KY, where they lived many happy years together with friends at the lake. On any given day, Connie and Bob would be seen riding their golf cart, holding hands, and living life to its fullest. She will be missed by her friends at both her church in Cadiz, KY, and Oak Hill Bible Fellowship, in Evansville. Connie is survived by her siblings with whom she loved to play monthly card games: Beverly (Don) Gore of Newburgh, IN; Earl “Skip” (Mary Elaine) Carter, of Evansville; James “Jimmy” (Yvonne) Carter, of Tell City, IN; and Robert “Bobby” (Cathy) Carter of Evansville. Her legacy includes her children: Kim Barfield Stewart, of Evansville; Pam (Tim) Jones of Hazleton, IN; Donald (Beth) Barfield, of Newburgh, IN; Tracy (Tom) Fleenor, of Evansville; stepchildren Lisa Deckelman of Florida; Bobby Wigger of Florida; and Michael (Stephanie) Wigger of Avon, IN; as well as 17 grandchildren and six great-grandchildren. Connie could often be found at the ball field, watching a dance recital, or on the sidelines as she supported her grandkids and great-grandkids. Connie was preceded in death by her first husband, Larry Barfield; her parents, Earl and Ruth; her stepdaughter, Christine Clark; and her second husband and soul mate, Bob Wigger. Visitation will be on Tuesday, June 21, 2022 from 3-8 pm at Ziemer East Funeral Home and will continue on Wednesday, June 22, 2022 from 10-10:30 am. A funeral service will also be held at Ziemer East Funeral Home on Wednesday, June 22, at 10:30 am with grandson Clint Stanton, officiating. Entombment will follow at Memorial Park Cemetery. In honor of Connie, the family requests that all of those who knew her take a moment to tell someone they love them. Memorial contributions can be made to The American Cancer Society, an organization whose cause was dear to her heart. Condolences may be online at www.ziemerfuneralhome.com.
