What a beautiful celebration and tribute to a jewel of our community. Sis has been an intricate part of my family forever. She and my Mother, Gladys Magee Barnett Hall were John Randy and my 1st grade room mothers in 1956. We continued to love having her in on the fun during our senior trip in 1968 ! Laughter and tears were commonplace at Emmas during the afternoon over coffee and cookies as Sis & other surprise Bickhams would drop by to check in. Mother, Aunt Mamie Bickham Ault and Dorothy were often found reminiscing and sharing memories of family history 'round the kitchen table. Very blessed to have shared time on this earth with Sis. My prayers are with each of you who love and miss her ! May those precious memories shine brightly during this difficult time of void. May the Good Lord wrap his loving arms around her and reunite her with loved ones awaiting. Love & Hugs to all my Bickham Cousins.

Prayers for your family during this hard time, especially being far away. Sis was one of the sweetest ladies I knew, who I met at our square dance club and missed her when she quit dancing a few years ago now. She always had a friendly smile and always happy.

May God bless your families.

A beautiful obituary for a beautiful lady.
Such a kind soul. Sis spent her life dedicated to the care of family and friends, all the while with a grand sense of humor. We are grateful for our memories of the Bickham family.
