Also surviving are 16 of 17 siblings from the Gehret and Grieshop unions: Ann & Leroy DeMange of Yorkshire; Tom Gehret of New Bremen; Jane & Steve Selhorst of North Star; Larry & Mary Lou Gehret of Sidney; Dennis Gehret (dec.); Bob & Patty Gehret of Versailles; Carla & Roger Hartings of Maria Stein; Ted & Kellie Gehret of Minster; Lisa & Andy Paulus of Versailles; Susan & Tony Kramer of Osgood; Gene & Kathy Grieshop of Versailles; Jim Grieshop of Portland, Ind.; Larry & Ellen Grieshop of Versailles; Joyce & Don Frantz of Fort Recovery; Linda & Ed Dircksen of Minster; Mike & Nancy Grieshop of Versailles; and Patty & John Schulze of Fort Loramie; along with numerous nieces, nephews, uncles, aunts & cousins.

He was a member of St. Michael Catholic Church in Fort Loramie and a past member of St. Denis Knights of Columbus. Pickle enjoyed fishing and calling on family and friends to stay in touch.
