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.

Hi John and Virginia! I was so excited to see you on facebook. I just want you to know you two impacted and continue to impact Richard and I. So many things you taught by words and actions are dear to our hearts. Almost every time we counsel with a couple we share some of the wisdom you shared with us. I have NEVER forgotten the day in our living room when I was so frustrated with our youngest son and you asked me,"does he know you love him?" No matter what happens with him ( and he can be difficult) I always think of that and often ask him, "Do you know I love you?"


We are doing well (most of the time). Rich is still pastoring at Calvary chapel saving grace, leading a men's study (which is one of his passions). I am co-leading women's study most years. We will be grandparents at the end of this month!!!! We are so excited.


Lastly, Can we come see you?


We love and miss you!!!
