John Henricks

John Allen Henricks, 61, Schofield, passed early Wednesday morning November 10, 2021, with family by his side.

John was born in Marquette, MI on September 03, 1960, to Allen Henricks and the late Miriam (Nelson) Henricks.  He married the love of his life Corrine Heise in 1983 and has two sons; Paul and Matthew.

John is survived by his father Allen (Nancy) Henricks, four siblings: Charles (Tammy) Henricks, Sheryl Henricks Strasser, Allyson (Peter) McKensey, and Elizabeth Henricks, his two sons and one grandson Paul (Danielle) & Miles Henricks and Matthew Henricks; aunt, Helen Martin; step-brother, Mark Kohorn; “American Brother,” Pedro Sanchez and seven nieces and nephews.

During his life John impacted many. He had an entrepreneurial spirit and started two companies in his time.  ‘Yes Dear Building and Remodeling’ and ‘Marathon Plastics Corp.’ The latter employed and inherently supported many families by supplying stable jobs in Mosinee, WI.

John, like much of his family, had an affinity for the woods and hunting.  As with any hunter John had one landmark story to tell.  ‘Couldabeen’ was a 9 pointer that HE shot under the stand of his eldest son (12 at the time) on opening morning. The son was supposed to be in that stand; some stories will always live on.

The memorial service is scheduled for December 4th at St. Matthews Church in Marathon City with visitation at 10 AM, and service at 11 AM.        206 Hemlock St, Marathon City, WI 54448
