Not sure what to say?

I was Dr. Wickwar's student in two classes and I was very impressed by the knowledge he had and taught me not just in class but also personally. I wished I would have known about all his amazing life accomplishments!

I am so sorry to hear about Vincents death. You are in my thoughts and prayers. Janet Yuknas

I am very sad to hear of Vince's passing. He was my roommate when we lived in Palo Alto, Ca. My condolences to Gina and his family.

Of all my Real Estate clients and friends over the years Vincent impressed me more than most anyone. He was kind, caring and always had an open mind. He was a problem solver. As I read the obituary it seems he was even more brilliant than I knew. Gina and family, you have sadly lost a great man who will be missed by many. This is indeed a sad time.

Vince was a wonderful person, and I will always remember him for his humor and care. I will remember the scientific collaboration with him that lasted for many years. My condolences to Gina and to the whole family.

Utah State University's College of Science sends heartfelt condolences to Professor Wickwar's family, friends and colleagues. Dr. Wickwar was a brilliant scientist, researcher, teacher and supporter of the Cache Valley community, and leaves an impressive legacy of novel research, as well as philanthropy. His "Green Beam" research was a source of fascination in the local community and an inspiration to aspiring scholars. He will be deeply missed.

My condolences to Prof. Wickar's family.
