Staind also posted a statement on their verified Twitter account on Sunday afternoon after news of his passing spread.
'We first met Jon through mutual friends in 1994. We came together with Mike, Aaron, and Johnny April in 1995 and founded Staind,' the statement began.
'The 17 years that followed were some of the best memories of our times together,' the statement continued.
'From practice in Ludlow, Mass to touring around the world, Jon was integral to who we were as a band,' the group continued.
'Our hearts go out to Jon’s family, and fans around the world who loved him,' the statement concluded.
Wysocki first met singer Aaron Lewis when his friend, guitarist Mike Mushock, introduced them, and with bassist Johnny April, the group was formed in 1995.
The group performed with Lim Bizkit in 1997, and impressed frontman Fred Durst so much he signed them to his Flip Records in 1998.
They released their major label debut Dysfunction in April 1999, with Break the Cycle (2001), 14 Shades of Grey (2003), Chapter V (2005) and The Illusion of Progress (2008) following.

'I’m so sad. I lost my friend. A friend I loved like a brother… fought with like a brother… cared for like a brother… worried about like a brother… cried over like a brother… because he was my brother in arms,' Lewis said.
'My journey would’ve been different without him. The battles we fought together. The battles we fought against each other. The battles we fought side by side alone with our own demons. The battles we won and the battles we lost,' he added.
'He was my friend. He was our brother. My heart is broken. My world has changed. I’ll see you on the other side my friend. My brother. Godspeed,' he continued.
'My heart, my love, and my condolences go out to his family and loved ones. I’m so fucking sad. He will be missed,' Lewis concluded.
