Henry Pickelmann

To the Pickelmann family, especially Jan: We are so sorry for your loss. We were just talking to you & Henry after church that particular Sunday, this past summer 2015. That was the first time I had actually met your husband. He seemed such a wonderful, caring Christian man and husband. I would have loved to have taught under him as I am sure he was a caring principal & teacher as well. Full of love for the Lord and humble in his service to Him! God Bless you Jan, and your family. We were going to come to the funeral but an uncle on Ricky's side had a funeral the same day. Our thoughts and prayers are with you.

~In Christian Love, Ricky & Krystal Himm

So sorry to hear about the loss of your husband. It was a pleasure getting to know him for the short time I had with him. He could always put a smile on my face. Definitely going to miss him. Prayers to all of you!

So sorry to hear of your family's loss. So hard to fathom that it's been about 20 years already since he was my teacher at Trinity! no doubt he is in a great place now! Prayers for your entire family during these sad times. So hard for those left behind until reunited.

To the Pickelmann family, esp. Gary & Pat, Wayne & Susan, Jon and family, and Jen and family: I was so saddened to hear of the sudden passing of your brother, father, and grandfather. I am not sure if I ever met him, but the Christian way he lived his life is reflected in all of you. He was a special oldest brother; he was a wonderful father to his kids, and a proud Grampa to his grandsons. His memory will live on in you, and you can carry on his loving Christian attitude in all you do. I had hoped to see all of you in person, but sending a big hug, along with our thoughts and prayers at this difficult time. He can now rejoice with his Savior in Heaven.

Our prayers and sympathy are extended to all of you during this time of sadness. I will always remember hoeing with you boys when your dad worked our farm.

The world lost an awesome husband, father, grandpa, teacher, colleague, and most of all a very special friend. Henry's quick wit and sense of humor will be greatly missed...well done thou good and faithful servant. He deserves everything God has promised him. He left the party too soon...we wanted him to stay and visit, but God had other plans.

God's Grace was sufficient for Henry. He knew and believed this. He showed it thoroughout his life of ministry to God, his family and friends and to his fellow believers throughout the world. It was an honor and privilege to have known and loved him as a "brother" and we look forward to the moment when God calls us to join Henry in praising Him eternally in heaven.
God's peace, love, joy and strength.

This poor little candle can never adequately reflect the radiance of Henry, his spirit, or his love of family and friends. He was truly one of the kindest people I have had the privilege of knowing, always looking for the bright side to any dilemma. His wit and understatement always made me laugh. His sense of fairness and courage under fire, along with his determined thoughtful, truthful way of handling difficult situations always made me stand in awe of him. You couldn't ask for a better friend. He will be greatly missed. Go with God Henry, you certainly deserve your great reward. No more suffering or pain. Happy conversations with those who left before you. A better place for you, a sadder place for us here without you.

My sincere sympathy to all of you.May the knowledge of a joyful reunion in heaven bring you comfort and peace at this time of parting.

I deeply appreciated Henry's commitment to ministry and cordiality during our days in the Michigan District Lutheran Principals' Conference.

I am so sorry for your loss, you are in my prayers. to the pickelmann family

He will be missed. I was in one of the first classes Mr Pickelmann taught and thought very highly of him. RIP

Dearest Jan, Jen & Jon,
Words cannot adequately express what I would like to say. Please know you are all in our thoughts and prayers and find comfort in the knowledge that our dear Pickle-Mister-Man is now enjoying the heavenly home he so greatly deserves with our awesome heavenly father - who he loved so dearly.

My thoughts and prayers are with the Pickelmann Family.

Henry was a good friend and mentor while I served at Trinity-St. James in Munger. I will always remember him as a faith servant for our Lord. May God's love comfort you at this time remember that one day we will all be reunited with our Savior in Heaven.

My thoughts and prayers are with you in your time of grief. May your memories bring you comfort.
