Martin Parrish Obituary
He was born on May 02, 1960 in Sacramento CA to Harold and Hilaria Parrish. Martin moved to Citrus County 26 years ago from Bristol RI. He was employed by Home Depot and Morgan Electric. He previously served in the Air National Guard and U.S. Navy and "jumped out of perfectly good airplanes" as he would always say. He loved fishing, motorcycles, his Corvette, NASCAR, computers and living on the edge. His family and friends will always remember his smile and his sense of humor. He was such a great guy who always made people laugh; and once you met him, he was unforgettable.
Martin was preceded in death by his father Harold Parrish.
He is survived by his Mother, Hilaria Parrish; his children, Jennifer Cembrola, Christopher Parrish and Stacy Cembrola; his brother Patrick Parrish; nephew Bradley Parrish; grandchildren Taylor and Berkleigh Hamm, Nevaeh Nevills, Joseph Cembrola and unborn grandchild to his son Christopher and his wife Courtney.

Martin was such a nice fellow. He installed my 220 connection for me in Lecanto when I bought a new dryer. Really intelligent, great work, smiled all the time. Enjoyed meeting and knowing him, if only for a brief time. Will always remember Martin. My prayers and thoughts to his family.
