Pitcock Family: My condolences on the loss of Ed. I worked with him at South San Francisco High School for several years, and found him to be warm, engaging and a lot of fun to be around. He had a great career and influenced many students at the high school.

Dear Argie and family,
I first met Ed walking the picket line when he had one of his children in a stroller. Not only was he a good educator, but he was a wonderful father. So sorry I missed his service due to out of town house guests. My thoughts and prayers are with you all.
Sincerely,
Pat Marsala

Mr. Pitcock was vice principal at Alta Loma Jr. High when I attended. I spent alot of time in his office.He was a tough, but fair man. I liked and respected him. I did not know it at that time, but I learned valuble life lessons from him. God bless him for being there for kids like me. My sympathies go out to his family.
