Beverly was born in Enid on January 10, 1946 to Elden Shaffer and Virginia Gordon Shaffer and passed away Tuesday, February, 19, 2019 at her home near Ringwood.  She grew up in the Ringwood community and attended all twelve years at Ringwood Public Schools. She attended NWOSU and NOC.  She and Perry Wiggins were married in Enid on December 8, 1961 and just celebrated their fifty-eighth wedding anniversary.  She attended auction school with Perry in December 1962.  During and following college, they lived in Alva, Blackwell, and Drummond and moved back to Ringwood in 1974.  They opened an office in Enid in 1972 and Beverly became the general manager of their auction business and continued in that capacity until her health forced her retirement in 2012.  Beverly was a good business manager, especially skilled in designing auction advertising, winning many state and national awards for brochure design. She was the national chair person for the auxiliary of the National Auctioneers Association for their annual convention in Oklahoma City in 1998.  In 2009 she was inducted into the Oklahoma State Auctioneers Association Hall of Fame, becoming the first and, to date, the only lady to receive that honor. Beverly was a member of Lahoma First Baptist Church.
