Parralee was a great friend and a one of a kind wonder woman who I admired for her sincerity, hard work , loyalty , effervescent personality. She and Michael raised a great family and over the years when we talked she spoke of their great achievements with pride and great love. Her community will definitely miss her and hopefully she has inspired others to follow her model life of service and good will. Condolences to Parralee“s family .We are all better off for her good acts and devotion.
