Dr Picchetti was truly a wonderful man. What a wonderful laugh, and a great dentist – and just an all around NICE man. The world will be a little sadder without him in it each day. He and I would laugh at how I mixed up and changed words – He laughed at me when I went to pick up my 1/4 cow from Dan & Lynn and he was having the same problem I was – Not enough coolers. To the entire Picchetti family my deepest sympathies. To the Dental Staff family – I am so very sorry for your loss of this inspiring man. I will miss him!
The Kehnast family sends heartfelt sympathy and condolences. Jim has been a friend and extraordinary professional helping us for his entire career.
We will miss his always friendly outlook and dedication to our needs. We are shocked and deeply saddened to learn of Jim’s passing.
With love,
Gerrie, Mike, David,, Lauren and Andrew
I just found out about Dr. Jim. He was more than just my dentist for 20 years. I thought of him as a friend. I’ll miss him. If he didn’t know it in life on this side, I hope that he knows now how much he meant to me. Even though I was only one of his patients.
My deepest sympathy to the entire Picchetti family. He was a great guy and a fantastic dentist. I was a patient for over 30 years. I will miss him.
I was so sorry to hear about Dr Picchetti’s passing. He was truly one of nicest, most caring people and dentists that I’ve ever met. He sincerely cared about and was always willing to work with you in maintaining your dental needs and was truly a kind and compassionate person. He sincerely loved his wife, children and grandchildren and was always smiling when talking about all of them. My deepest condolences go out to his entire family, friends and all of his patients. Rest In Peace Dr. Picchetti. I’ll miss you.
We are so sorry to hear of Dr Pichetti’s passing. We’ve been going to him for many, many years. In fact, he’s the only dentist my kids have ever seen since they’ve been small. He was a such a kind and genuine person and we will truly miss him. Sincerely, the Kern Family: Rodney, Donna, Spenser, Katie and Zack.
