Brent Parker Obituary

Parker, Brent L.
58 of Glendale, AZ, passed away peacefully in his sleep on April 21, 2011. It's hard to describe Brent L. Parker in just a few words. A more fun-loving, free-spirited person would be hard to find. He was born in Angola, Indiana August 22, 1952 to Donna and John Parker. He is survived by his wife Alma Parker, his mother Donna Cleveland Cody, his brother Dennis Parker and his sister Jacquelyn Roper. He was preceded in death by his father John P. Parker, his brother Steven Parker, and his sister Michele Parker. His passions were family, fishing, hunting, traveling, and building things. He worked for ADOT for nearly 19 years inspecting bridges and retired in March of 2007. He will be sorely missed by all who knew him. A Visitation will be held in his honor Monday April 25, 2011 at Green Acres Chapel of Light at 1:30 PM, followed by his Funeral Service at 2:30 PM, located at 401 N. Hayden Rd. Scottsdale, AZ 85257. For online condolences please visit www.greenacresmortuary.net. Brent's family sends out a special thanks to "Hearts for Hospice" for their caring and compassion.
