Jeremiah R. Spickler, 36

September 07, 2021

Jeremiah R. Spickler, 36, of Columbia, PA entered into eternal rest unexpectedly on Tuesday September 7, 2021 at his home.

Born October 19, 1984 in Lancaster, Jeremiah was the son of Mark Spickler and Candice (Getz) Wall. A proud graduate of Lancaster Academy, Jeremiah went on to enjoy a long tenured position with Field of Screams where he wore many hats from maintenance to working on props that scared many each and every year. Most recently, he worked for Ecore International in the mechanical maintenance department.

Jeremiah was no stranger to the thrill and delight of Halloween which greatly influenced his life. He lived for the spook. His expertise led to a successful side business of mask making which was operated through 13th Ward FX. Above all, Jeremiah had a good sense of humor, was a friend to all, and enjoyed being the life of the party. Jeremiah especially loved spending time with his dog, Fry. His presence will be cherished and greatly missed by all who had the pleasure of knowing him.

To cherish his memory, Jeremiah leaves his father: Mark Spickler (Maribelle); mother: Candice Wall (Ron); two brothers: Zack Butt (Megan) and Zepplin Butt (Brittany); his maternal grandparents: Richard and Janet Getz; paternal grandfather: John Spickler; as well as several nieces, nephews, and aunts. He is preceded in death by a brother: Tyler Spickler; his paternal grandmother: Carol Spickler; and a great-aunt: Ruth Spickler.

A Viewing will be held at the Charles F. Snyder, Jr. Funeral Home & Crematory, 3110 Lititz Pike Lititz, PA 17543 on Friday September 17, 2021 from 1pm to 3pm. A Funeral Service commemorating Jeremiah’s life will immediately follow at 3pm with Rev. Don Wert officiating. In lieu of flowers, memorial donations in his honor can be made to the Muscular Dystrophy Association, 1861 Charter Ln, Lancaster, PA 17601.

For those unable to attend, the service will be livestreamed in a link below moments before the start of the service. Please refresh this page closer to that time.

We all love you, we miss you very much and that much includes myself. You have taught me so much over the years knowing you at field and how to do things I never once knew how to do. I’m gonna live on from what you started buddy and make you proud with all the knowledge you left me.

Condolences to Jeremy’s biological family and his Field family. He was framily to my boys and daughter in law… a true north constant in their lives for years as a friend, teacher, coworker, leader, explorer, designer, mentor and roomate. We remember Jeremy and the impact he made while with us and the one he’ll continue to make because of his super charged life force that will not end with interment.
All the love, Mama Sullivan (Gordy, Stevie, Mo Cat & Juice)

It has been one of my greatest privileges to have worked with such a talented person such as Jermey the only thing bigger than his talent was his heart and laughter, both of which will be greatly missed around the maintenance shop here at Ecore.

I met Jeremy on his first day at Ecore, and always enjoyed his warm smile as he passed me in the hallway.  So sorry for your loss, he was a very kind man.

Very sorry for your loss. I knew him in my time at Field of Screams, he taught me how to do special FX makeup and he had talent like none I’ve ever seen, and I appreciate him sharing his skills with us. He was a great inspiration to others, a great leader and mentor, and from those who were closest to him were lucky to know his friendship. He was a good person. Wishing everyone finds peace in the memories shared of him, and healing amongst family, friends and loved ones who knew him best. R.I.P.

I did not have the privilege of knowing Jeremy for a long time as we worked different shifts at ecore, but I certainly enjoyed the times I was able to speak with him.  If there is one thing, I will always remember from Jeremy is that sometimes the solution to the biggest problems can be solved by just keeping it simple.  I loved how nonchalantly he came up with ingenious solutions to complex problems.  I am grateful to have met Jeremy.  He will be greatly missed.  May he rest in peace.

I am so sorry to read of Jeremy’s passing. My deepest sympathy to everyone who loved him. He found his passion early and grew along with it and he shared it with many every fall. May you find peace in the coming days. He has.

I am so sorry for your loss. Jeremy was sweet and funny and my son, Andrew’s best friend. Mostly he was family. I never saw him without a smile and he never saw me without a hug. He will be forever a part of our hearts. May he Rest In Peace and enjoy his new life and adventure in heaven. I’m praying for heartfelt peace for all those he left behind. ❤️-Momma Biggerstaff

From his imagination to his most sincere thoughts he always showed his true passion when bringing ideas to reality. As a teacher he saw potential in everyone and never gave up, always pushing us to improve. We are all grateful to you for shaping us and our world.

I have never had a dull moment with Jeremy. He always was sharing his art, his passion, and his love for everyone and everything. A great person, and monster alike. It was an honor to share scares with him.

So sorry for your loss he was a good person we had worked with him in the den.

Jeremy was such a caring person, that in 2012, when I had a hip replacement, he, Viv, Andrew and Mabbie came to visit me in the hospital. He even made a big pan of lasagna and delivered it to my home. I worked with him at field and my daughter, Hayley was a close friend of his.

September 11, 2021

There was really no one like Jeremy – never met a single person that didn’t love him. The world is now way less fun, and a lot less spooky. Long live Letch!

September 11, 2021

He was loved by many.  May he rest in peace. And many prayers for the family. 

September 10, 2021

This young man brought joy and happiness into our lives. He was always there and willing to help whenever we needed him. His imagination and talent for sculpting was unmatched. His love for his relatives and friends was apparent.  His strong presence will be missed. May the love of God grant peace to all who knew him and loved him. May his soul Rest in Peace.
