John Rex Wilson

I am deeply saddened by the loss of my friend John. He knew how to do everything including making another happy. He loved so many people and his dog Ollie. Taking a walk with him, he knew and was friends with everyone we ran into. John was taken too soon and will be deeply missed. Scott Weiner and Annie Redmond 302 Glenthistle Ct

I had the pleasure of getting to know John and then working with him through Woodcraft. A wonderful and very giving person. I am the better for having known him. He will be missed. Dan Splinter

Deepest condolences to the family. John inspired so many of us to strive to be better riders. Also serving as a shining example of how to embrace life, each and every day with good humor and humility. Truly. One of a kind. Nate Troia, former GDVC President.

Oh gosh I remember John. Long ago (some 34 years) while trying to keep up on a group ride with local fellow cyclists John quietly pulls up to me and says "you can do this, keep going". Words to live by for sure. Also, let it be known that John set the bar when it came to tending the ice at Tenney, the best ice in Madison. I am so sorry for your loss.

Thinking of you Catie, Dora, and the grandkids. From the smallest glimpse of his life I saw, John was a well loved, great man. Sending lots of love, Courtney RN
