William C. "Skip" Parker

I would like to say that I am sincerely sorry to hear about the passing of Skip. He was a good guy and had a big heart.

Skip and I worked together in the kitchen of the Chapter XI restaurant in Simsbury (I was in high school at the time) in 1979-1980. My cousin's husband was one of the two owners of the establishment. Skip was a good worker and very easy going. I remember he lent me several of his albums to listen to because I had never heard these groups before and I wanted to...

Skip you were an inspiration and a beacon of hope in a sometimes dreary world. you helped me see that just for today i can be the best me i can be you will be greatly missed.

You will always have a special place in our hearts. God bless you!
