Craig S. Wicks

Craig S. Wicks, 52, of Economy Borough went home to be with the Lord on Wednesday, October 14, 2020 with his wife and son by his side. Born on June 11, 1968, he was the son of Stewart H. Wicks of Economy and the late Lorraine J. (Colburn) Wicks. Craig was the proud owner of his excavating business which was in operation for 30 years. He was affiliated with St. John's, Lovi Church under the ministry of Pastor Rox Costanza who became a dear friend with whom he enjoyed his many visits. He loved being outdoors and was an extremely skilled woodworker. Craig had a huge heart and was always doing for others. He was highly respected by many in the community. In addition to his mother, he was preceded in death by a son, Alex Keith Wicks of Conway. Surviving are his loving wife of seven years, Debbie Wicks; his father, Stewart Wicks; a son, Zacary Wicks; a sister and brother-in-law, Andrea and Rich Paganie; two grandchildren, Bryson and Brielle Wicks, all of Economy; two step-daughters, Chelsea (Shaun) Vidovich of Bell Acres and Ashley Vidovich of Economy; mother-in-law, Jean Brandt of Economy; a brother-in-law and step nephew, Bob and Dalton Brandt of Economy; a sister-in- law and brother-in- law, Brenda and John Antoline of Monaca, and many close friends. Craig was overwhelmed by the amount of support and prayers that he received during his illness. A special thank you to who Craig and Debbie affectionately called " The Mailbox Angel." As per Craigs request,  there will be no public visitation. 
                                   "God Saw You Getting Tired"
                                    God saw you getting tired                                   
                                     and a cure was not to be
                                  so he put his arms around you
                                 and whispered, "Come with me."
                                 With tearful eyes we watched you
                                      and saw you pass away
                                and although we loved you dearly
                                   we could not make you stay
                                A golden heart stopped beating
                                   hard working hands at rest.
                             God broke our hearts to prove to us
                                     He only takes the best
