Jeffrey Richard PARKER

JEFFREY RICHARD PARKER July 5, 1983 - December 6, 2018 (aka Jay Tripper) Left us too suddenly on Thursday, December 6th without a chance to say goodbye. He was a larger than life presence in all of our lives, who will be deeply missed by his parents, Patty and Dick; his loving partner, Kevin Flynn; by his beloved sisters, Alyson (Duncan) and Megan; and his niece and nephews, Kaiya, Crew and Beckett. He leaves behind his extended Parker family in Grimsby and Toronto, his York family in the US, and his Robertson family in Kingston and Toronto. He also leaves behind a devoted community of friends whom he touched through music and art in Montreal and Toronto. He was a talented graphic design artist and left his own impressive mark on the live and electronic music scene. He was the Poster Boy of Poster Boys. He marched to his own drummer, had a wicked sense of humour and a heart of pure gold. We will miss you Jeffers. Jeff has been cremated and the family wishes to invite everyone whose life he touched to join us on Friday, December 14th at 2 p.m. at The Opera House, 735 Queen Street E., (east of Broadview). Short speeches will begin at 3 p.m. Thank you to St. Michael's Hospital and the ER Team for their efforts to save him. Something not meant to be. In lieu of flowers and in his memory, if desired, please make a donation to Covenant House or Sick Kids Hospital and lend a hand to someone in need. Media are asked to respect the family's privacy and not attend.
