Laurie Ann Pickeral Chitwood

Laurie Ann Pickeral Chitwood, age 44 of Moneta was called home by her
Heavenly Father on November 26, 2019. She was born on November 27,
1974 in Rocky Mount, Virginia. She was the daughter of mother, Bonnie
David Pickeral and late father, Dennis Pickeral. Laurie was an
extraordinary wife to her husband, Brian Chitwood and mother to her son
Taylor Chitwood and daughter Emily Chitwood. You could always find her
in the kitchen making delicious food, or out supporting her husband and
children in everything they did. She was very involved in not only her son
and daughter’s lives, but her community as well. She never met a stranger
and constantly put her heart out for those who needed it. Her workplace,
HTF Mechanical Services, was always a second home for her. She was a
lifetime member of Christian Fellowship Church. Laurie is survived by her
husband, Brian Chitwood; son, Taylor Chitwood (and Layura Henley);
daughter, Emily Chitwood; mother, Bonnie David Pickeral; brother,
Jeremy Pickeral; mother and father in law, Billie and Sharon Chitwood;
sister and brother in law, Brooke and Donald Aheron; many nieces,
nephews, aunts, uncles, cousins; her beloved cat “Pokey” and her eight
closest friends, Lisa, Daryle, Michelle, Shannon, Tanya, Kira, Nina and

p.m. Sunday, December 1, 2019 with Pastor Michael Finley officiating.
Interment will follow in David Family Cemetery. Her family will receive
friends 6-8 p.m. Saturday at Flora Funeral Service and Cremation Center,
