James R. Wiggins, 55, of Superior, passed away Sunday, Feb. 17, 2013.

He was born Nov. 4, 1957 in Duluth to John W. and Mary P. (Pflum) Wiggins.

He graduated from Cloquet High School in 1976. Jim had been a car salesman for Krenzen's and North Country Auto Exchange and was currently working in the Wal-Mart Deli in Cloquet. He was an avid collector of "Treasures" from old memorabilia to coins and other unique odds and ends. Jim loved reading unusual books about a wide variety of things. Every Friday you could find him out at garage sales. He was forever adding to his collections. Jim was a very engaging man and everyone enjoyed talking to him. He was fun spirited, had a million watt smile, and a boisterous laugh.

Jim was preceded in death by his father.

He is survived by three children, Jason Wehr, Kristie (Roger) Petersen, and Jimmy Wiggins; his mother, Mary Wiggins; three grandchildren, Zack, Alex and Ariel Petersen; and special friends, Lara Vekich and her daughter Ericka and her children Natalie and Cason.
