Thinking of you Loretta, Nicole, Sarah and David during this time of deep loss.
Parkesy was one of life’s true gentlemen and always radiated a warmth that made everyone feel special.
He was softly spoken however had an underlying strength that you could always rely on.
Parkesy supported me through several difficult times during my life, and I’ll forever be in his debt for his recent help with my own cancer challenge.
Although sadly missed, we will never forget such a great man.
