LAFAYETTE SHARP PARKIN

Lafe and I served together in the British Mission in 1959. Lafe and I were companions for a short time and served together in the Liverpool District. He was an outstanding missionary. From that experience with him,I knew he would make a meaningful contribution to the church, family and community. Richard Duce, [email protected]

Serving at the Newport Beach Temple is a delight - we LOVE President Parkin. I always told Kathy, "We are going to have a party with Heavenly Father" - every Saturday night. President Parkin was a part of that. Thank you Predident.

Hey Tasha, My wife and I are very sorry about your dad's passing. We want you to know that you are in our thoughts and prayers. May God bless you! Roosevelt & Erin Richard.

May your hearts soon be filled with wonderful memories of joyful times together as you celebrate a life well lived.

We were so sorry to hear about Lafe. It is so difficult when we lose someone so loved. We know your faith and the fact that he awaits you on the other side will help your grief. Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your wonderful family.

To President Parkin's family: I am so sorry to learn of Lafe's passing. He was my late brothers personal attorney many years ago and handled my parents estate. I got to see him at the Newport Temple several times and he remembered me. He was always very kind and gracious. The Celestial Kingdom has gained a great man. My deepest sympathy to all of you.
