Jimmie Lawrence Liggins, a cherished and devoted family man, passed away peacefully on June 6, 2026. Born on April 3, 1939, Jimmie lived a life marked by love, service, and deep connections with those closest to him. His steadfast character and caring spirit left an indelible mark on all who had the privilege of knowing him.

Throughout his lifetime, Jimmie remained dedicated to his family and nurtured strong bonds with his loved ones. He served honorably in the United States Army, a testament to his commitment and sense of duty. Those who knew him will remember his wisdom, kindness, and the countless fond memories created with family and friends.

Jimmie is lovingly survived by his devoted wife, Hattie Turner Liggins, who stood by his side with unwavering support. He was a proud father to his sons, Jimmie Liggins, Jr. and Raymond Liggins, both of Vicksburg, Mississippi, who carry forward his legacy of love and resilience. His sisters, Betty Hamberlin Morgan (William) of Raymond, Mississippi; Jannie Liggins, Mildred Liggins, and Melva Liggins Walker, all of Milwaukee, Wisconsin, continue to honor his memory.

His legacy also lives on through his cherished grandsons—Sandy Eric Thomas, Adonis Liggins, and DeAngelo Liggins—who brought joy and pride to his later years. He held a special place in his heart for his nieces. Forever faithful and beloved, his fur baby, Rocky Liggins, was a comforting companion during his life.
