JR was and always will be an important life long friend to the Bob (RO) and Rosemary Parsons family. He was so kind and helpful to us in 2021 when mom and dad passed within 2 weeks of each other and the many years before. The memorial service this week was beautiful, in such a lovely country church, with heartfelt messages that resonated for the JR we knew so independently. Every pew was filled with wonderful family members and friends that we didn’t know, yet we were grateful to be there and felt welcome. Deepest sympathies to the family, this extended Parsons family will be missing him too.
