LAURA PARKER Obituary
Laura graduated from Pilot Point High School in 2005 and furthered her education at North Central Texas College in Gainesville. Her passion for life was evident through her love for animals and her unwavering care for those around her.
She leaves behind a loving family: her mother, Donna Parker of Valley View, Texas; brothers, Jerry Parker and his wife Cezan of Little Elm, Texas, and David Parker and his wife Jennifer of Jefferson, Georgia. Laura was a caring mother to Brayden Kines, Gia Kines, both of Valley View, Texas, and Houston Cantrell. She was preceded in death by her father, Gary L. Parker.
A service to celebrate Laura's life will be held at the First Baptist Church, 400 E. Broadway, Gainesville, Texas, on August 11, 2024, at 3:00 PM. Her legacy of love and compassion will be remembered by all who were fortunate enough to know her.

Although we knew each other for several years from working with each other, we weren't especially close. But I always knew her to be a loving mother, kind, a hard worker and always striving to be the best at what she did. I am truly saddened by this loss. I pray for comfort for her children and family.

Laura is Latin for victory, wisdom and honor. May we all find those qualities within ourselves and hold her spirit high as she was a beacon of light for all who knew her.. Laura was sunshine in our day, she will be remembered as a true warrior

The world lost a beautiful soul. I see you everyday in the eyes of this perfect little boy you blessed us with. He will know that his momma was kind and loving. He will know you loved him. You will never be forgotten, you beautiful sweet girl. Until we meet again.... I love you to heaven and back.

My sister was an amazing person who wanted the most from life. She was a beautiful ball of energy. She blessed us with three beautiful children that I love. We will miss you and see you again in the kingdom.

Laura will be remembered as a good hearted, energetic, fun loving and adventurous young woman. She always had a big smile and a warm greeting when we saw each other. May her spirit rest in eternal peace.
