Please accept our deepest condolences for your family’s loss.
I am so sorry to hear about Mr. Parker’s passing. He was such a nice man. He shared a room at Autumn Care with my uncle, Sherwood Walker several years ago. He was always so kind and helpful to Uncle Sherwood. We enjoyed visiting with Mr. Parker just as much as our uncle. Our thoughts and prayers are with Mr. Parker’s family at this difficult time. God Bless You!
What a sweet, dear friend! Pete Parker always had an infectious smile on his face….friend to ALL, The world was a better place because of him.
A fine fine gentleman. He will be missed.
What a sweet, sweet man who had the most endearing smile. The world has lost a special angel….
,I found out about Pete’s passing last night from my sister, Debbie Taylor. I was so sad to hear this. Pete was a dear friend of hers for several years, and I know she will miss him beyond words. My sister Joyce, and Pete were very good friends also, when she was at Autumn Care. Pete was well loved by everyone there, and I’m sure elsewhere. God bless his family and friends during this difficult time. Minnie Raynor Compton
Becky and family, We extend our heartfelt condolences to you all. We first met Mr. Pete at Battleboro Apts. He has had a special place in our hearts ever since. He was a dignified, interesting gentleman, and a joy to be around.
I met Pete several years ago at Autumn Care. Even in the winter stage of life, Pete was always happy and content in our conversations.
The church family of Enfield Baptist Church extends its heartfelt condolences to Pete’s family. He was a friend to each person he met and always greeted you with that wonderful smile. Deborah Armstrong, Deacon Chair, Enfield Baptist Church

I have nothing but fond memories of Little Pete. What a legacy. Was blessed to visit with him in April. Pete was gracious as always. May God grant Pete kind admittance into His kingdom.
I am sorry to hear about the death of Mr. Parker. Death affects everyone. We miss spending time and conversing with our love ones. Rev. 214, reminds us that there will be a time when there will be no more outcry, pain, sorrow, or death. It is a true blessing that God has planned for us in the future. Praying for the family.
