Bart was born in Wheeling, West Virginia on August 10, 1973, the beloved son of Delvin and Mary (Drum) Wiggins of Woodsfield Ohio. Bart was named after Dr. Barton who saved his life as a premature baby at UPMC Pittsburg, PA where he spent the first month of his infant life and his Great Grandfather Jefferson Straight. Bart lived a quiet unassuming life of service to God, church, his family and community. His love of God was instilled in him as a child by his loving parents, Sunday School, weekly church attendance at the Woodsfield Presbyterian Church and his life at Camp Presmont on Piedmont Lake.
