March 18, 1947 — May 21, 2017

David Pickett, 70, passed away on Sunday, May 21, 2017.

David was born in Dayton, Tennessee on March 18, 1947, the son of the late James Ray and Hettie Roena Pitts Pickett. A proud veteran of the United States Air Force, he served his country during the Vietnam War and retired with the rank of Master Sergeant. Following his military retirement, David was aircraft mechanic supervisor for Atlantic Southeast Airlines at Middle Georgia Regional Airport in Macon for 20 years. He enjoyed being a member of the VFW and the Masons in his free time, and also spent a lot of time selling things at flea markets. David leaves behind countless happy memories with his friends and family and will be sadly missed by all who knew him.

In addition to his parents, he was preceded in death by his beloved wife, Johanna Kinner Pickett.

His memory will forever be treasured by his son, Jeff Pickett (Patricia) of Bonaire; granddaughter, Kasie Pickett of Warner Robins; great-grandson, Christopher Tate Cason; sister, Linda Travis (Junior) of Dayton, Tennessee; and a host of nieces, nephews, and other extended family.
