Rest in Peace, Mr. Pickering. Thank you for having me over so often when I was a kid. In more recent years, I always enjoyed seeing you at the family gatherings.

My heart is broken.....my good good friend is gone! Pete was so kind, thoughtful, funny, loving and wanted to help eveyone. He loved fixing things and gardening. I will miss his stories of when he was in the war and his truck driving days. But most of all I will just plain miss him. Thank you God for my many years of knowing Pete.. please take good care of him . My condolence to Mike and Richard and to his best friend Norm!

A piece of Pete's heart will always be in my heart. I too met him in the chat room. Pete touched many lives with his quick whit and compassion for his friends. He really was there for me a few years ago, after the passing my Mom, my sister four months later and my brother 2 years later to cancer. He was there, to make me realize life goes on. God bless you all with his passing. He was loved by all he met!

We were shocked to read of Pete's death. We had seen and spoken to him just a couple of weeks before and knew that he was not feeling well but he was still usually puttering around in the yard or garage. We were away last week so we didn't notice he wasn't outside never imagining that he had passed away. He and Jackie moved to our neighborhood back in the 70's when the boys were still in diapers. Pete was a good friend and neighbor who was always willing to offer help if you needed it. Rest in peace, Pete. We will miss you.

RIP Pete. I still have fond memories of the times you and Jackie took care of me before and after school for many years. It definitely had a positive impact on me growing up. Condolences to the family. All my best. - Matt

RIP Pete. You have laid down the working tools of the craft and have gone to that celestial home, not built with hands, eternal in the heavens. Alas, alas, alas my brother till we meet again.

Uncle Dick, you will be missed. I always enjoyed talking with you at family gatherings. Your sense of humor was the best, such a great chuckle you had. I love you.

My heart is broken. Pete would sit behind me at church and we would chat and laugh about things before the service started. He loved my carrot cake. Will miss you Pete. You are now with Jackie. 🙏🏻🙏🏻

Good man, good family. Mr Pick was "the man" back in the old BMHS football days. Really enjoyed reconnecting with him thru FB. He, with much certainty, will be missed.

So sorry to hear of his passing. Although he was not blood, my siblings and I always called him "Uncle Dick". He and my father ( Claude Wetmore) were very close friends. I have a lot of fond memories with him and Aunt Jackie, Rest in Peace
