Parris Wallace Obituary
Canton
Parris Michelle Wallace went to be with her Lord and Savior on June 23, 2013. She was born in Jackson, MS on October 24, 1992. She graduated from Madison Central High School in 2011 and was currently a pre-nursing student at The University of Mississippi. She had a smile that could light up a room and the most contagious laugh you had ever heard. Her piercing blue eyes were the most beautiful you have ever seen.
She had a multitude of close friends and family who were the center point of her enjoyment. She was a joy to everyone who had the privilege of knowing her.
She is survived by her father and stepmother, Gary and Patrice Wallace, paternal grandparents John and Barbara Wallace, a sister Kaylis Wallace Byrnes (Jonny), a nephew Lawson Byrnes, aunts, uncles, cousins, a very special friend Philip Cook, and her beloved Nanny Mama Alice McLaurin. She was preceded in death by her Mother, Pamela Tumey Wallace and her maternal grandparents.
Visitation will be Wednesday from 5-7PM at Breeland Funeral home in Canton, MS. A memorial service will be held at 2PM Thursday at First United Methodist Church in Canton, MS with a short visitation before the service at 1PM at the church. There will be graveside service immediately following at Natchez Trace Memorial Park Cemetery on HWY 51 in Madison, MS.
Memorial donations can be made to Batson Children's Hospital-Division of Pediatric Neurology and can be mailed to the Division of Public Affairs, 2500 North State Street, Jackson, MS, 39216.
