Jack Parker Obituary

Published by Legacy Remembers on Feb. 4, 2025.
Jack Edward Parker, 79, passed away on February 1, 2025, in Shreveport, Louisiana.

Born on February 3, 1945, in Ashville, North Carolina, Jack lived a life marked by dedication, kindness, and service to others. He was a devoted husband to his beloved wife, Katy, and a loving father to his daughter, Krystal. He was preceded in death by his son, Matthew.

Jack was a valued and respected member of his professional community. Always ready with a helping hand and a kind word, he was an invaluable asset to his team. He took great pride in mentoring newcomers and contributing greatly to workplace happiness. His generosity of spirit and unwavering support for those around him left an indelible mark on all who had the privilege of working alongside him.

Beyond his professional life, Jack found deep fulfillment in his faith as an active member of Holy Trinity Lutheran Church. His commitment to his church community reflected the same selflessness and compassion that defined every aspect of his life.

Above all else, Jack cherished his family. His love for them was evident in everything he did. Whether through quiet moments of supportand prayer or grand gestures of devotion, he always put the needs of others before his own. His presence brought joy to those who knew him, and he will be deeply missed by all whose lives he touched.

A service to honor Jack's life will be held on February 6, 2025, at 1:00 PM at Holy Trinity Lutheran Church, located at 8895 Youree Dr., Shreveport, Louisiana, 71115.

Jack's legacy of kindness and generosity will live on in the hearts of those who knew him. May he rest in peace.
