Mrs. Pickett was my 3rd grade teacher. She was a wonderful woman who will be missed. I had the pleasure of running in to her at No Frills about a month ago, and had a little chat. My sympathies to her family.

Jacqui, Ray and I are so sorry for your loss. You have shared so many memories of your mother with us and we feel even though we only met her once we know her through your stories. She was a remarkable woman who produced a remarkable daughter. I know you will always hold those memories close to your heart.
