Andrew "Drew" Parker-Thompson

A young man so full of life and a heart of joy. I miss you so much I can’t express how I feel it’s like a bad dream still. I’ll love you forever.

Being my 3rd son (though not biologically), Andrew will always be in my heart. I remember his loving and polite mannerisms so well. I recall (during their high school years) when he invited my son Bobby to church and I only knew this when Bobby came home in the night and told me he got baptized! I didn’t know Andrew or his family then, therefore I was greatly concerned about the church Bobby got baptized in without my presence. To verify the baptism information, I drove, by his direction, to...

Drew I'm so glad that I was able to get a chance to know and work with you. You are one of the sweetest people I know. I will never forget the fun we had at work and that silly laugh of yours. You really made my day!
I just want you to know you are one of a kind and I will NEVER forget you.

my family and I send our prays and love to the family. We have known you Andrew since you were a young child, I just reconnected with you in the last month may God keep in his loving arm. Aaron,Daniel,Joshua Laurie Hudsonbonner

Too many memories to name just one. You will be sorely missed. I will continue to pray for you and your family and especially your babies. Love you bro.

It's very hard to accept the fact that Andrew is gone but I now have resolve it's a journey we all must take. I will miss hearing him call "Hi mom" whenever he greets me with a warm hug. He was a son to me as I watched him and my son grow up as close friends. He had the utmost respect for me as an elder and I will miss his visits coupled with warm smiles and Godly conversations. Andrew, you are gone but never forgotten. You will always be my third son.

Drew, this is so hard for me to imagine never hearing your voice and waiting for you to say something funny. I've cried everyday since you went away. My nephew my son I know God knows what's best. I will always love you...Aunt Barbara

To Our Family,

There is not a day go by that I don't think of my nephew Drew. I remember his humor, smile and laughter.

My heart is broken and words can't begin to describe the hurt and pain I am feeling but I know it does not compare to what my sister, nieces, the children, great nieces,nephews and Aunts are going through / feeling.

Yes, I am aware of others who are sharing in our grief as well.

I am here for each of you and praying. I would like to leave this...
