As I reported last week, Gary Wichard of Pro Tect Management has passed away at the age of 60. It has been reported that the cause of Wichard’s death was pancreatic cancer. His family is requesting that instead of sending flowers, donations be made to the American Diabetes Association or the Pancreatic Cancer Action Network in Gary Wichard’s name.

The following is written on the site linked above:
After a long battle, Gary Wichard succumbed to pancreatic cancer at the age of 60 at his home this morning with his wife and daughters by his side. Over the last 25 years, Wichard has been one of the most widely-respected and accomplished agents in the world of sports. He fought hard and worked tirelessly for all of his clients, while still garnering the utmost respect from team executives throughout the NFL. A family man first and foremost, he also considered his clients to be like family as well. This is truly a sad day for the countless lives he touched in such a profound way. Donations can be made to the American Diabetes Association and the Pancreatic Disease Network (pancan.org).
