Martin Wick - Business
Martin Wick graduated from St. Paul High School in 1937. He earned a law degree from St. Louis University in 1942. Martin then served with the U.S. Army during World War II.

He grew up building pipe organs as a member of the family that founded the Wick’s Organ Company. Martin became president in 1948 upon the death of his father, as his older brother had passed away earlier in the 1940’s. During WWII the company had retooled to manufacture clock and airplane parts, along with their ongoing pipe organ business. These diversifications of the business continued and expanded after the war under Martin’s leadership. Martin was especially interested in the aircraft supply side of the business as he was a licensed pilot. The business branched out further in 1996 adding Wick’s Custom Woods. Wick’s Organ Company is known internationally for it’s quality craftsmanship and service, largely because of the high expectations set forth by Martin Wick.

Martin was one of the founders of the Highland Manufacturer’s Association in the 1960’s. He was a proponent of the “Silver Dollar” project sponsored by the manufacturers in which the local manufacturers made one payroll in silver dollars to highlight the income from manufacturing flowing into the community. Martin enjoyed his work, spending time with his family and being involved with St. Paul Catholic Church. Additionally, he had a keen interest in restoring antique/classic cars and in taking family and friends for rides in restored vehicles.
