JOHN C WICKMAN 1938 - 2021

John Conrad Wickman passed away peacefully at home with his wife, Elizabeth (Betty) Jones and his three best friends, Rocky, Star, and Coco, by his side. He will stop by the Rainbow Bridge to pick up other friends (Frosty, Buddy, Teddy, Pixie, Maggie Mae, Doodle Bug, and Brandy), who are waiting for him and they will go on to be with God in their Heavenly home where they will wait for Betty to join them in the future. John was born in Willoughby, Ohio, the only child of John Fremont Wickman and Anna M. Kusmierkowski.

John had 10 grandchildren and five great grandchildren. They divorced in 1982 and John married Sandy Kearney in Las Vegas, in 1984, divorcing in 1992. John and Betty shared almost 30 wonderful years of friendship, love, and laughter. Where you found Betty, you would also find John. He always said the third time is the charm.
