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.

I know John from early Yorba Linda when it was a small "know everyone" town.  John was blessed in seeing Yorba Linda grow from a very small town to what it is now.  We didn't have to lock our doors at night.  The Post Office was on Main St.  The Young family owned a restaurant where all the old timers gathered for coffee.  The Barton family owned the liquor license for "no liquor" for years.  What a wonderful memory your family will have remembering John's legacy.
