John Douglas Wilenchik Obituary
It is with deep sorrow that we announce the death of John Douglas Wilenchik (Scottsdale, Arizona), born in Phoenix, Arizona, who passed away on July 23, 2024, at the age of 39, leaving to mourn family and friends. You can send your sympathy in the guestbook provided and share it with the family.
As we bid adieu to John Douglas' earthly form, let us not dwell on the void left in his wake, but rather celebrate the legacy of love and inspiration John Douglas has bequeathed us. For though he may have departed from our sight, his spirit remains a timeless beacon, guiding loved ones through the labyrinth of life's journey.
He is survived by: his wife Maria Rosario; his children, Jean, Shirley and Paul; his parents, Dennis Wilenchik (Bonnie) and Becky Ann Bartness; and his sister Caitlin Fitz-Maurice (Colin). He is also survived by his inlaws and many nieces and nephews.
Once he decided to change his aimless lifestyle, he began work at Wilenchik & Bartness in Phoenix as a paralegal, while attending law school, and attended trials with his father before passing the Bar exam on his first try, and trying his first jury trial immediately thereafter on his own, against a former Judge no less, and winning it, while at the same time donating a kidney to his mother without hesitation.
