Not sure what to say?

John was the best client I have ever served. I learned much more from him than he ever learned from me. The value system he taught me carries me every day.

I first met John in the seventh grade
Biology class at Blytheville Jr Hi. He was always quite and
considerate of those around him but it
was very obvious that he was an exceptional person and destined to become
someone of great importance.

I knew John as a quiet, compasionate teenage student during the 1945-51 period and along with many others who knew him, recognized him as one of God's best children who left memories of kindness in our world..

What a wonderful gentleman and doctor. Dr. Wilks helped to give me a son, the most precious gift. He enhanced the lives of many.

To Dr. Wilks' family,
May God's comfort be yours in the days and months ahead. Dr. Wilks was an amazing doctor. He never gave up on finding the medical condition that I suffered with....his knowledge was above most in his field. His compassion for his patients was outstanding and his kindness was always appreciated. The medical field has lost a wonderful man, and I know his family has lost the same.

When Dr. Wilks retired, I didn't know what to do. Not only was he my doctor, but he was also the doctor of all the women in my family and most of my friends. There was not another physician like him then and there will never be another like him. Dr. Wilks was compassionate, thorough and respectful. I appreciated him so much!

"Well done, good and faithful servant." Matthew 25:21

Please accept my sympathy for your loss.

As the days and weeks pass, and as you return to life's routine, may you continue to feel comforted by the love and support of family and friends.

I am very sorry to her of Dr. Wilks passing. He was my doctor from an early age until I moved to Charlotte in 1998. He knew exactly what was wrong and knew exactly how to make it well. He was a fantastic doctor. So kind and understanding. May God be with you at this difficult time.

Dr. Wilks was my doctor back in the early 1980's and I have never known a nicer doctor. He performed major surgery on me and took the best care of me a patient could ask for. The medical field lost a good doctor when he retired. My condolences to the family of Dr. Wilks.
