Michael Kigans, 72, of Midlothian, went to heaven suddenly but peacefully in his sleep on March 18, 2023. He is survived by sons, Ryan and Dean (Caroline); grandsons, Trip and Parker; wife, Jenny, and devoted friend, Virginia “Ginny” Millikin of Denver, Colo. His sons and grandchildren were the true loves of his life. A graduate of Huguenot High School, Mike was an honorably discharged U.S. Army veteran and had a long tenure with the Virginia Highway Department. A lover of animals and the outdoors, Mike never met an animal he didn’t want to pet or keep. He was a generous man with a huge heart. Mike loved music, especially the Beatles, and watching his family live a prosperous and fulfilled life. The family will receive friends from 5-8 p.m. on Friday, March 24, at Woody Funeral Home—Huguenot Chapel, Midlothian. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to Richmond Animal Care and Control or St. Jude’s. A memorial service in Ware Neck, Va., will be held at a later date.
