September 1, 2012


A GLORIOUS DAY - Virginia Whitson Parker has joined John, Pat Thune, Edith Anderson and so many others in her heavenly home.

She left this earth early Saturday morning Sept 1, 2012 after a restful night. The timing was most likely chosen once John finished painting and installing shelves in their new mansion. :-)

Virginia lived a faithful life as wife, mother and encourager. Many lives and marriages are changed today as a result of her life. We are grateful for all she has meant to us and are thankful for her faithful example.

A memorial service is planned for Sunday afternoon at 3:30 Sept 16th at Yorba Linda Friends Church in Yorba Linda CA. For a map http://goo.gl/maps/AJ9Ab Service details are available from the church office at 714-777-2875.

Cards and notes may be sent to Howard Parker, 5126 Lakeview Ave, Yorba Linda CA 92886 and email to family@parkers.net. We will be adding your comments and thoughts to this website as they come in.

Mr. Parker - I must say I never thought I'd see the day that you and that beautiful wife of yours had a Facebook account! Pretty cool! Hope you're both well.

It's hard for me to speak of you two without getting emotional. I'm sitting in a Starbucks writing this with tears welling up in my eyes. I am a beneficiary of your obedience John and Virginia. Thank you, Thank you, Thank you! Thank you for "proclaiming the excellencies of Him who called you out of darkness and into His marvelous light". Each and every 3rd generation Thune that I know 'get's it' - and we cannot begin to express our gratitude!  

Love you guys
