John Wiley Jr.

Here is something the I found on the web awhile back. I had misplaced it for some time. Tom was accepting recognition of former military service at NASA. I found it in a Marshal Labs newspaper on-line. Regards to all that miss him! https://www.nasa.gov/sites/default/files/files/ELG0654.jpg https://www.nasa.gov/centers/marshall/about/star/star141112.html John Wiley, U.S. Navy veteran and component development area lead in the Engineering Directorate at NASA's Marshall Space...

I am so sorry, I just learned about John. He was such a great person, so happy and kind. This is a terrible loss to us all.

Aunt Margret, Uncle Ron, Aunt Elizabeth and Kids, Tommy was always a big part of my growing up and I will always remeber the good times growing up, I have been so sad knowing that he is gone, but I always remember all the good times we had with him! My heart, Prayers and thoughts go to all of you! Tommy, I will really miss you, you were always such fun to be around and always had a awesome smile for everyone, it did not matter who was around, you always had a hug for everyone, no shaking...

Ill always remember cruising around in that Rambler..tunes on the "8 track" My prayers to Tom and his family and friends...

A good physics student and a good researcher for NASA and Virgin Galactic. Probably the most optimistic guy I have ever known. He always believed a solution existed for any problem.

John was a study partner of mine at UAH when we were in the same physics or possibly EE101 class. He was former Navy, I was former Army and we had a former Air Force guy who rounded out our study group. I worked alongside him for a brief period at NASA. We both SCUBA dove and I recall following his efforts to involve his daughter in diving. He will be missed.

I meet TJ during senior year of high school in Branford Connecticut. I have great memories of that year as well as his father John senior and Elizabeth. It turns out that my father went to grade school with John senior which I always thought was interesting twist of coincidence. I only saw TJ a few times after high school, but always found it easy to reconnect with him.

I have added a photo of TJ and his car taken in 1976 in Branford Connecticut. After getting his Master's in Applied...

John was an amazing person. I will always remember his inquisitive nature and ability to laugh at adversity.
