Todd Wiggs of Cincinnati Ohio, passed away peacefully Wednesday morning, surrounded by family, after a long battle with colon cancer. He was 54 years old.
Todd is survived by his parents; Buddy and Libby Wiggs: his children, Natalie and Jackson Wiggs: his sisters, Melissa Bostwick and Margo Peitz; his partner of 5 years Shannon Franz and her son Porter.
Todd was born in Cincinnati on July 13, 1968. He graduated from Finneytown High School in 1986 and Northern Kentucky University with a Bachelor’s degree in History. His love and knowledge of wine and the industry led to a successful career as a wine and beverage manager. He loved sharing his favorite wines and food with family and friends.
Todd was a loving father, brother, son, and friend. He was an eternal optimist and had a zest for life that was contagious. He found joy in everyday life, family, and the love and support of his longtime girlfriend Shannon. He loved fishing, boating, roller coasters, wrist watches, sci-fi stories and movies, and musicals. He enjoyed spirited debate and had a wicked sense of humor that even cancer couldn’t diminish.
Our family would like to invite you to share your stories and raise a glass to Todd’s memory in celebration of his life.
