Albert Pickett, Jr.

Albert Pickett, Jr.

known by many as Little Brother, was born on October 13, 1940, in Hampton, Arkansas, to the parentage of Albert Pickett Sr. and Mariah Tate Pickett. He departed this earthly vessel on July 2, 2026, at The Ouachita Nursing Rehabilitation in Camden, Arkansas.

Little Brother attended and graduated from McRae School in Hampton. He made many friends while in school. So many of these friends became lifelong friends. He was one who always showed himself to be friendly to everyone he met. Oftentimes, he had something funny to say that would bring delightful laughter to all those around him.

He began attending church at a very young age at First Baptist Church, Hampton, and remained there for many years.

He was united in Holy Matrimony to the late Gurtha Rene Williams Pickett, and to this union no children were born. In later years, he married the late Mary Richardson Pickett; to this union, no children were born.

Little Brother was not afraid of work. He possessed a strong work ethic. He spent many years working in the logging business and was respected for his dedication and commitment.

Little Brother was the youngest of five children. Four siblings preceded him in death: Willie Pickett, Sam Pickett, Bernice Pickett Warren, and Glady Pickett Childs. He leaves to cherish fond memories a host of nieces, nephews, cousins, friends and acquaintances. To know him was to love him.
