Mr. Driggers was born in Aiken County, a son of the late Coye Lee and Pauline Foley Driggers. He was a member of Johnston Church of God. Mr. Driggers was a humble, patient and humorous man. He loved the Lord and was an avid prayer warrior. One of his favorite things to do was to play the guitar and sing with his wife, Carrie.

Also surviving are his siblings, Mary Ann Brunson (Davy), Randolph Coye Driggers (Lois); and beloved nieces and nephews.
