CLARICE WICKER Obituary

CLARICE JEANNE WICKER (WOODS) Jeanne to those who know her - was born in St. Joseph, Missouri, two days after Christmas in 1934. She had four beautiful daughters, three of whom survive her: Kelly Altobelli in North Hollywood, with whom she lived for the latter months of her life, Tracy Montgomery, who lives in Patriots Landing, Indiana, and her youngest, Elizabeth Shannon Dershem, currently residing in Henderson, Nevada. Her daughter, Sunny Johnson died not long after reaching fame as a star in the movie "Flashdance". For many years, Jeanne successfully ran her own Property Management business in Highland, California, until retiring to Burlington, Iowa, in 1998. She loved being in the Midwest again, commenting time and again how life was slower there and people remembered your name. She is survived by five grandsons; and seven great grandchildren, in addition to her three daughters. Her family and friends gave her great satisfaction and happiness; she loved each of them very much. She was affiliated with the Latter Day Saints church, and she joyfully shared the gospel with anyone who would listen. She listened then as she listens now to God.

Jeanne was a property manager for my late husband and me in Highland, CA where she managed our 4-plex apartment building. Always ready with a warm smile, she will be missed by all who knew her. Sending love and light from Albuquerque NM, Lisa Buechner McKellar

Jeanne was my very good friend in our last two years in high school. We were inseparable. Then of course we all went our separate ways but found each other again in the early 80's and kept in touch until last year when I "lost her again" when she left Iowa to live with her daughter. I feel so fortunate to havehad her in my life. She was a very special person to me and will always be in my heart.
