Robert “Bobby” Darin Pickett, 58, died peacefully on February 2, 2024 at the Kansas City Hospice House. He was greatly loved by his family, friends, and the many students he taught.
I am so sorry to hear this. Bobby was a sweetheart. He lived just over the fence from me in Frostwood. So many fond memories of hanging out in the coldesac all night and meeting up at Pimpler Park for some kind of shennanigans. From his obituary it looks like he went on to have a great life. Cut wayyyy too short. Anne
So sad to hear this! I met Bobby our freshman year. He was always outgoing and full of life! A couple of times a week we would sit in my car in the morning before school and eat donuts and drink Coca Cola for breakfast. "Breakfast of Champions", he would say. I remember he opened a can of Coke one day and it sprayed all over my headliner. He just said, "oh well, sorry" and he just laughed the special laugh he had. We moved, got busy with life, and lost touch for quite a while. He reached out to me in 2020 to reconnect. He never told me what he was going through, and I would have never guessed by the way he acted. So positive and full of life and laughter! It was so good to hear from him again. He was a great guy!
I am so very deeply saddened to hear of his passing......"Pickett...Pinto": we were ALWAYS in home room together and our names were ALWAYS called one right after the other...what a happy happy memory. My husband and I ran into him about 10 years ago at a Houston music venue and it was such a joy to see a friend from my past. May he rest in peace....prayers and my deepest sympathy to his family.. Nena (Pinto) Brackett.
