Parker Wiechart
Parker Andrew Wiechart, 23, of Celina, OH died 2:02 p.m. Wednesday June 24, 2026 in the emergency department of JTDM Hospital in St. Marys, OH from injuries sustained in a motorcycle accident. He was born March 31, 2003 in St. Marys, OH to Bradley J. and Shelby J. (Pickering) Wiechart.
Survivors include: parents Brad and Shelby Wiechart of Celina, OH; sister Kayla (Josh) Frantz of New Knoxville, OH; brother Tanner Zizelman of Columbus, OH; brother Preston (Abbygail Barto) Wiechart of Columbus, OH; sister Sylvia (Cobain Owens) Wiechart of Celina, OH; 4 nieces: Sophia, Amelia, Gabriella, Ramona; paternal grandfather Chuck Wiechart of Delphos, OH; significant other Madison Krites of St. Marys, OH; extended family consisting of aunts, uncles and cousins; a large circle of friends.
Preceded in death by: paternal grandmother Rebecca Wiechart; maternal grandparents Ralph and Emilie "Jane" Pickering.
He was a graduate of St. Marys Memorial High School (Class of 2022).
He was employed as a chipper/grinder for the St. Marys Foundry Co. and also operated the Dual Pressure Hood Cleaning Service Co.
Parker's favorite pastimes included working on anything mechanical and going very fast on every type of machine known to man (especially, his Harley-Davidson motorcycle).
Parker Wiechart made an indelible impression on those who knew him. Energetic, hard-working, supportive, fun-loving, creative, inquisitive, friendly, courteous, outgoing, determined, thoughtful and caring are all words that describe him. He had an insatiable quest for adventure and was afraid of nothing. He embraced life and everything it had to offer.
On top of everything else, he was devilishly handsome and could melt your heart with his boyish grin. In other words, he was trouble … He will be deeply missed by all who knew and loved him.
Rites are scheduled to begin at 2:00 p.m. on Thursday July 2, 2026 at the Miller Funeral Home 1605 Celina Road (Ohio 703 West) in St. Marys. Burial, with motorcycle escort, will follow at the Resthaven Memory Gardens near Moulton.
