For my classmate and friend John Wickersham,you were always unwavering with your kind,inclusive nature.At Wilkinson,Madison and the times after graduation that we happened to meet,your welcoming manner and cordial demeanor were an indicator of an absolutely beautiful spirit.Long may you soar.

I met John at Roper. my first day in the pharmacy. He was a very nice person, a good worker, good teacher and a good friend. He loved his family and always talked about them. He was so proud of them. He will be missed by all. My prayers go out to all the family.

Crystal and Family,
What can I say that hasn't already been said. My heart also hurts to hear of John's passing. I worked with John at Palmetto Infusion for about 5 yrs, I know he was an awesome person, co-worker and family man from the standards he held himself accountable to. The moment I started work at Palmetto he would always take the time to explain and teach. He was a Great Teacher. He will be greatly missed, My thoughts and prayers are with you.

I had the pleasure of working with John at the time Palmetto Infusion was transitioning to Infuscience. He brought much needed wisdom, wit, and joy to an otherwise dreary environment. He was a mentor and father figure to many, and taught me lessons about pharmacy and life that I will not forget. I am shocked and saddened at John's passing but am forever grateful to have had the opportunity to know him. Your family remains in my thoughts and prayers.

Over the years I have heard the expression "point of light" used to describe special people or things. John gave substance to the expression for me as he truly was a "point of light" whose life and character gave off love and kindness to all with whom he had contact. I know that John's heart, soul and spirit place him with the eternal elite.
Love Don Gibson, personally along with his Staff

I was sad to hear of John passing. I knew John from Madison high. John was always ahead of the curve, a quick wit, directed, an inspiration, and above all, he was kind and a willing friend to anyone. My condolences to his family and friends for your loss.

Ellie and Crystal, Knowing your Johnny since he was a baby and watching him grow into a man made my heart proud.
I can't believe he is gone from us but I know he is with his dad now and that helps. We will all miss him so much. I have many memories of him at our cottage and they all make me smile. I'll never ever forget him.
Love,
Fran

This was heart breaking news. John was a friend from way back in high school. He was kind and friendly to all. The last time I saw him was at the class reunion at cosmo's. He talked of family and his career-he was so proud of his family. May angels watch over his family always. God bless.

I was so sorry to read of the passing of John. I knew him in high school and he was one of the few people I looked up to and admired. I sense he grew up into a Good Man. My condolances to John's wife and family. I am so sorry for your loss. To Jim, Pam, & Julie, we had a good time growing up together in the hood, I know your brother ("JoHann") will be missed. You are all in my prayers.

I'm not even sure what to say. Mr Wick was such a special person. He was loved by many who were lucky enough to get the chance to work with him. I was one of the very lucky to not only get to know him through work, but also to get to call him a true friend.
I use to tell him that he was like a father to me, but he insisted it was more like a brother. When I first met him I was called "The Mazzell Child" by him, but after lots of year of knowing him he started calling me "Miss Mazzell" because he said I got to old to be "The Mazzell Child" I am glad that we had lots of good memories to hold dear to my heart.
He loved his family very much. He always enjoyed working hard for them. He was proud of all of them and very excited about being a Grandfather to Olivia and Austin.
He will always be remembered with a smile. He was one of a kind. I will miss him very much.

Crystal & Family.
I have been blessed to share many happy times with you and John. Our children's marriage to one another, our ultra sound day revealing our little grandson and of course the birth of our grandson. I will forever feel bonded to the both of you & I am truly honored to have known him. He was full of love and treated my little grandaughter as his own. He will be very missed by us all.

I'm so sorry to hear John is gone. I went to Madison High School with John in Madison Heights, MI (Class of 1975). He was always kind. I tried to reconnect with him on Facebook a few times over the last months. I sure wish I had succeeded. My thoughts are with all of you. My heart hurts.

I met John in 1992 when I attended pharmacy tech school at Trident Tech. He was a great teacher and mentor. I've kept in touch all these yrs and about a yr ago, began working with his now daughter in law Stephanie. I am so sad to hear of this tragedy but feel his car accident took away his abilities to be himself (a workaholic). My prayers are with his family. Rest in Peace John

I was at a loss for words when I received the phone call from Jake. Not being nearby to wrap you in my arms and give you all the love and strength I could muster makes John's passing even more difficult for me. I pray you find comfort in knowing his pain is no more and that he will always be in your hearts. All our love and deepest sympathies to all of you...
