Piggott Jr., 95, a resident of Helena, for 65 years, passed away at Rocky Mountain Care Center in Helena, on Sunday, Sept. 10, 2006. John Piggott was born in Lander, Wyo., on Jan. 5, 1911, the son of John Daniel Piggott Sr. and Mable (Jones) Piggott. He was the oldest of seven children. The family moved to Riverton, Wyo., when he was a young boy, and he later met and married Mildred Presgrove. Mildred and John were the parents of three daughters, Marjorie L. Heathcock of Fontana, Calif.; Dorothy A. York of Tyrone, Ga., and Virginia L. Webster of Redding, Calif. Mildred preceded him in death in 1989. His parents and five of John Piggott's siblings have preceded John in death: Martha Turner of Oregon City, Ore.; Margaret Crain of Dallas; Margery Dean Piggott, Riverton (died at at age 2); Robert Piggott of Hobbs, N.M.; and William Piggott of Northglenn, Colo. His sister, Marian Nelson, the youngest of the seven children, resides in Riverton. John moved to Helena from Riverton in 1940.

He drove a cab and a city bus for many years and worked for the City of Helena, where he retired in December 1975. He and his second wife, Iris Steel Piggott, were long-time members of the Eagles' Lodge, where he played the harmonica in the minstrel band. After Iris' death in 1985, he met and married Frieda Maier Piggott, who preceded him in death in 1998. They were both members of the Moose Lodge and enjoyed singing in their choir. John was a resident at the Eagles' Manor for seven years until a fall broke his hip, causing him to be placed in a nursing home.

When he was younger, he also had a great love for fishing and hunting. Surviving, in addition to his sister, are his three daughters, eight grandchildren, 13 great-grandchildren, and two great-great-grandchildren, and many nieces and nephews.
