Luke Parry Obituary
Luke Parry, passed away at home, of natural causes, on January 30, 2023. Luke died suddenly- experiencing no pain, fear or regret. Luke grew up in Hollisterville, and had returned to live in his cherished childhood home, after having spent many years living in Bangor, PA. Luke lived every day to the fullest.
Luke leaves behind his beloved son, Noah, and broken-hearted wife, Morag (Morrie).

Luke was a volunteer for Bangor Public Library (Bangor), Cub Scout Pack 102 (Bangor), Boy Scout Troop 36 (Roseto), and the Wayne County Food Pantry.
Luke was kind, wise, curious, happy, creative and always busy. Luke was a gardener, artist, musician, photographer, naturalist, birder, citizen scientist, inventor and truly a beautiful person.
