Memories and Condolences
for Tenita Pickeral
August 30, 2009
Thank you for your warm and understanding methods of teaching. I always felt your desire to direct this former student the methods of "from the bottom up" was so sincere. The "using the pencil for calculations" vs. the hand-held calculator will stick with me the rest of my life. This has paid off for me in my professional as well as personal life!
I will never forget you!
Peace of our Savior!

In memory of a very special lady. I loved her so much. I could go to her with any problem and she would help me solve it. I enjoyed all the talks we had each week when she came to the house. She bought the coffee, a certain kind that we both liked. She did so much for me and I will miss her so much. I don't think i ever met anyone that I admired and respected more than I did Tenita. It would take a long time for the hurt to go away, but I know she is happy and healthy now and we can take comfort in that. She was one of my dearest friends and I will miss her so much

Larry, Reba and Family,
Our thoughts and prayers are with your family. I loved Tenita, as I do your whole family. She tutored me through calculus and was the reason I got my degree. She was an amazing example of how to be a successful, Godley woman. I have more memories than space to list. However, we will reminisce with her in heaven someday! We are praying for you.

My thoughts and prayers are with the Pickeral family. I was a student of Mrs. Pickeral’s at National College. She was an amazing woman of faith who inspired her students to persevere. I know that had it not been for her constant encouragement and patience I would have given up many times. She had a way of making you feel special and was never too busy for her students. This world has lost an incredible woman who was truly an inspiration to all who knew her.

My thoughts and prayers are with your family. Mrs. Pickeral was one of my favorite teachers. I was always inspired by her joy to show her love for God by proudly displaying her Bible openly on her desk EVERY day. I know that one day I will see her again in Heaven. She really inspired me and was the best teacher. I could not have made it at times without her help! She will be greatly missed! The world has lost a wonderful woman!!

Tenita,
You will certainly be missed. I haven't seen you in years, but I was looking online and I saw your name. I remember years, years ago in Sunday School class at Fellowship Baptist Church and the good times we shared. I hope and pray that your family will be fine. My thoughts and prayers are with your family.
