WARREN PARISH Obituary
Mr. Parish served his country proudly with the United States Army during World War II. Bud was united in marriage on April 5, 1946, in Big Rock, to the former Miss Alvina Ruth Keenan and they spent the next 64 happy years together until her passing on June 3, 2010. He was a member of the Immanuel Lutheran Church in Hinckley. Bud worked on several farms in the Big Rock area, and then was employed as a machinist and ended his career as the Big Rock Township Road Commissioner. He was a loving husband, father, grandfather, great-grandfather, brother and uncle who will be missed by all that knew him.
Bud is survived by his children, Cynthia (Darrel) Evans, Rebecca (Jim) Leeser, Stephen (Patricia) Parish, Rendell Parish, Jill Ihssen, Jacque Brown, Bradley and Brian Parish; 15 grandchildren; nine great-grandchildren; his brother, Robert (Sharon) Parish; and several nieces and nephews.
He was preceded in death by his parents, Russell and Eva Parish; his wife, Alvina Parish; his grandson, Timothy Evans; and his siblings, Chester, Albert, Fay and Grace Parish Lewis.
A funeral service will be held at 4 p.m. Saturday, June 4, at the English Congregational United Church of Christ, 301 Rhodes St., Big Rock, with the Rev. Kenneth Kramer officiating. A luncheon at the church will be served immediately following the funeral service, then entombment will take place at Greenwood Cemetery, Hinckley.
