PARKER LEE SHELTON Jr.

much respect to the family of Mr. Shelton.It is a great loss to the martial arts world

It was an honor knowing you. You are missed. Thank you.

You will be missed my friend! Thank you

Parker, I remember reading about you in all the Karate mag. in the early 1970's and then getting to see you fight in 1974 in Nashville , Tenn. In all the 38 years I have been in karate , you have influenced me the most. You are one of the true leaders of sport karate in America.Thanks for being a friend. Chuck Mangino

I dont think words can truely capture what i want to say. Our paths only crossed a few times at the dojo, he took an interest in me and we had long conversations about my plans after high school. He wanted me in the karate class, he offered words of wisdom and on more then one occasion knew how to get a good laugh. I remember him telling me how to get rid of the telemarketers if they kept calling. We discussed my Parkour training and my aspirations along with what i wanted to bring to it....

You will be missed my friend. The world will be less interesting without you. Rest in Peace.

I'm very fortunat to have the privilage to have known Parker Lee Shelton. He had a tremendous influence on alot of peaople. During the years that I was in Fort Wayne we trained together, worked together, and played together. We were also great friends. He was the kind of a friend that if you needed him he would be there for you. I left Fort Wayne some years ago but I have often thought about him and our times together and that is what a great man does. His impact on you is so great that he is...
