Sally , you were a perfectly patient older cousin to me. You were fun and had a great dry sense of humor. I absolutely loved your laugh. We were able to keep in touch over recent years thanks to Facebook. I loved your posts. I was so happy to see you happy with your husband and lovely family! I will miss you as I know many many others will too. Thank you for you for so much that I won’t list here Sally, but you will know. Love and light to you and more to your family in these hard times.

Mrs. Bickett was my 8th grade teacher, three years ago. She was so nice, patient and helpful. She made learning science fun, and she talked to us like people and friends, and not down to us like an authority figure. I got a chance to meet her and take a picture with her at the Cleveland Zoo. I will miss her so much, and am praying for all of the family.

I'm not sure where it's what even express how I feel. Sally and I went through the education program at Shawnee State University and quickly became best friends. She was like an aunt to my children and I was an aunt to her children and losing her is like losing my sister. The world will not be the same without her. My prayers go out to all of her family but especially to her children and her grandchildren.
