PICHT, Don 

Don Picht passed away Monday, December 1st, 2008 after a courageous battle with 
cancer. He was born May 7, 1948 in Tampa, Florida, and was the oldest child of Dan 
and Cleo Picht (both deceased). Don lived most of his life in Washington State, was a 
graduate of North Central High School and is a decorated veteran of the Vietnam War. 
After being honorably discharged from the Army, Don spent several years in the 
Spokane broadcast industry, then worked for over 20 years in communications for both 
the Washington State Patrol and the Spokane International Airport. Of his numerous 
connections to his community, Don truly treasured his softball associations, jamming 
with the guys and an occasional Friday night card game. Don is survived by the love of 
his Life, Melody Stubbs, of Spokane; his daughter Christina Morrison (Craig) of 
Bremerton; as well as close friends, whose lives touched Donny in so many ways. Don 
also had a soft spot for animals, especially his cocker Bob. A celebration of Don's life 
will be held Sunday afternoon, December 7th, 4pm at the Old European Restaurant on 
Spokane's north side, 7640 N. Division (the old Tony Roma Building). In lieu of flowers, 
memorials may be made to the Spokane Veteran's Association.
