Rev. Brian P. HIGGINS, CSBAt St. Michael's Hospital, Toronto, Friday, November 4, 2016 after a fall six days earlier at Anglin house, a residence of the Basilian Fathers. He was predeceased by his parents and his brother Hubert Patrick and survived by nieces, nephews, relatives and many friends. Father Brian was born on March 15, 1926 and was professed in the Basilian Fathers in 1947. He taught at St. Michael's College School, Toronto for one year in 1951. After ordination in Toronto in 1954, he was sent to teach another of several times at St. Michael's. In 1962 he taught and coached the senior football team at St. Mary's College (a high school) in Sault Ste. Marie, ON for 12 years. He was then Principal at Basilian high schools in Sault Ste. Marie, Sudbury and Windsor and taught in Toronto at Michael Power High School and again at St. Michael's. Shortly after a new St. Mary's College was built, the football field was named "Fr. Brian Higgins Field" on October 30, 2015. This is an indication that Fr. Brian was always a larger-than-life character and will ever be remembered especially at St. Mary's College and St. Michael's College School. Visitation will be held Tuesday, November 8th from 6:30 p.m. with a wake service at 7:30 p.m. in the Chapel of the Cardinal Flahiff Basilian Centre, 95 St. Joseph St., Toronto. Visitation will also be held Wednesday, November 9th from 9 a.m. until a Funeral Mass at 10 a.m. in the same Chapel. Interment will follow at Holy Cross Cemetery, Thornhill ON.
