GARY DELON PARSON

In the heart of Dallas, on January 2, 1962, the world welcomed Gary Delon Parson, a soul destined to bring laughter and joy to all who crossed his path. A son of this vibrant city, Gary flourished amidst its rhythm and spirit, crafting childhood memories that shimmer like prisms in the sunlight. Among these cherished recollections is a particular tale of an elusive orange popsicle – the sweet treat he claimed he missed out on, even as his tongue revealed the delicious deception, stained a bright orange, bursting with the innocent charm only childhood can hold.

Gary’s life was a testament to the power of humor and generosity. A true jokester, he had an unparalleled ability to light up any room with his infectious laughter, a warm and inviting presence that made every gathering feel like a celebration. His heart was as big as his personality; he was ever ready to lend a hand to anyone in need, embodying the ideals of care and compassion. This giving nature was woven into the very fabric of his being, reflecting his profound love for God and fellow human beings alike.

An enthusiast of life’s simple pleasures, Gary found solace and joy in gardening, reveling in the vibrant blooms he nurtured to life. Whether it was land scraping or cutting hair, his hands were dedicated to creation, leaving an imprint of beauty wherever they roamed. He approached each task with a unique zest, transforming the mundane into moments of magic.

As the sun set on December 17, 2024, Gary left this earthly realm, leaving behind countless memories that resonate with joy and laughter. His spirit, forever intertwined with the lives he touched, will remain alive in the hearts of those who loved him.

It is here, in the warmth of shared memories and loving reminiscence, that we will gather to reflect on a life well-lived and a spirit that continues to inspire. Let us carry forward the laughter he gifted us and remember him with the joy he so generously spread.
