Anne Marie Piccotti
May 11, 1935 – December 14, 2022
Anne Marie, 87, passed away peacefully on December 14, 2022. She was born in Bristol, PA on May 11, 1935 to Jetmund “Jerry” and Anna (Lappan) Litell, and was raised in California, along with her brother and three sisters. Through her Catholic upbringing and education, she had the opportunity to travel to Rome for a month-long pilgrimage in 1950 where she had a private audience with Pope Pius XII to celebrate the Holy Year. Anne Marie thought often of that international trip and the many places she was able to see and experience during that time, and it has remained one of her most vivid childhood memories.
After high school, she attended Sacramento Jr. College, spent 18 months in Maryknoll Sisters Novitiate in Valley Park, Missouri. She returned to California where she met and married Second Lt. Louis S. Piccotti USAF.
One of her greatest talents was the ability to whip up a small treat and friendly banter with those who came through her doorway. She was truly elated to see the many friends and family who would gather around her family table.
Anne Marie was very active within her local community and was a proud member of St.
Anne Marie is preceded in death by her parents, husband, brother Jerry Litell, sister Mathilda Webb, and daughter Jean Marie Piccotti. She is survived by her children, Rose Marie Garner, Mary Slater, Anne Stafford, Louis “Joe” Piccotti, Rita Harding, John Piccotti, Carol Copp, Lynn Lockhart, Gene Piccotti, Tony Piccotti; her 26 grandchildren; 15 great-grandchildren; and her two sisters, Sr. Mary C. Litell, and Cecilia Nixon.
