Obituary of Parker Trent McWilliams

It is with great sadness and sorrow that we announce the sudden passing of Parker on Thursday, April 2, 2009 at the age of 47 years, while working in Oklahoma. Parker was born and raised in Calgary and resided there until his passing. For many years Parker was employed in the seismic industry as a journeyman heavy duty mechanic and it was through this work that he was able to experience many parts of the world. Although he enjoyed his travels, Parker was always happiest at home. We will remember Parker and his “teddy bear” hugs, gentle nature, and marvellous humour. Parker is survived by his loving wife Darlene; sons, Bryce (Rachel) and Nathan; daughter Petria; two grandchildren, Sierra and Levi; his mom Fran; brother Warren; sister Marcia (Eric); niece Amanda; as well as many extended family of his and Darlene’s. In 2003, he was predeceased by both his sister Ginny and his dad Al.
