Dear Mrs Pickens & Sons
Dr. Pickens was one of the most dedicated Physicians I have ever had the Honor of meeting. He was kind, caring, funny and a Great Doctor. He was the kind of Man that colleagues and patients looked up to and admired. He was a Great Teacher to many, with knowledge most can only dream of having.
