National Business Media (NBM), and the entire staff of Sign & Digital Graphics magazine, remembers colleague and friend Ken Higgins, who passed away suddenly July 3, 2011. He is survived by wife Diane Higgins as well as his children, Eric and Kristin.
Ken was the former publisher of Sign Business and Digital Graphics magazines, and was an integral part of the success of The NBM Show. He will be remembered for his professional accomplishments as well as for his warm friendship and wry sense of humor. He began working with NBM in 1988 and over the years has touched the lives of hundreds of industry professionals.
"Ken was a respected and loved part of the Sign & Digital Graphics group," says S&DG Publisher Mary Tohill. "Ken was a professional colleague of mine for more than 20 years, but more importantly, he has been a close personal friend. All of us will miss him enormously. Anyone who worked with Ken over the years will remember him showing up at trade shows with a smile and his signature sandals. Please keep his wife Diane, and children Kristin and Eric in your thoughts and prayers."
"For more than 20 years, Ken has been an important part of Sign & Digital Graphics, as well as the whole NBM family," says Bob Wieber, president of NBM. "Ken had many friends throughout the sign industry, and those who knew him well knew a friendly guy with a quick smile and an even quicker wit. At beer-thirty, let's hoist one for Ken." |
