Monica Picard Obituary

Monica Belen Picard
October 10, 1977 - May 1, 2024
Monica Picard of Santa Rosa, passed away peacefully on May 1st, 2024. Monica was born to Soledad Alonso Gil of Madrid, Spain, and Alfred Schuchard II of Atherton, CA on October 10, 1977 in Hermiston, Oregon. She grew up in Pleasant Hill, CA where she attended Ygnacio Valley High School, graduating in 1995.
Monica graduated Cum Laude with a Bachelors in Science in Economics and Business Administration from Saint Mary's College in Moraga, California. Shortly after graduation, she started working with AIG as a business analyst, where she continued to work for the next 25 years.
Monica married Jason Picard in 2004. They have two kids, Elle and Jack, who are both currently in high school. Monica was a devout mother to her kids, attending every athletic event, helping with homework, and cooking for them every day. Her kids were the center of her world.
Monica was a loving wife, mother, daughter, sister, aunt, and friend. Her strong faith was a source of comfort and guidance in her life and contributed to her remarkable display of strength during her 10-year battle with cancer. She is survived by her husband, Jason; her children, Elle and Jack; and her brother, Alfred Schuchard III.
The memorial service will be held at Santa Rosa Memorial Park, 1900 Franklin Ave, Friday May 24th at 2pm. The Picard family would like to extend their deepest thanks to the team at Anchor Health for their expert and thoughtful care.
In lieu of flowers, Monica requested donations to Ceres Community Project or your favorite charity.

Jason, Elle and Jack, I am so sorry for your heartbreaking loss. I had the pleasure to work with Monica during my 21 years at AIG. Her brilliance and commitment to her work was always impressive and inspiring. But when work got too intense, we could always shift the conversation to any of her myriad of interests...from sewing to baking to homeopathic care. But foremost of these was her devotion to each of you. Over the years I was pleased to receive picture updates of her family from babyhood; to her kids in their Halloween costumes (which she sewed); to action shots of their sports successes...Her pride and love always shining through. She has left us all too soon, but will be remembered by those who knew her as a good friend and wonderful colleague. I am grateful to have known her and will miss her.
