Michael James Parks

4/21/1950 - 8/14/2010

This site is dedicated to the memory of
Michael James Parks.
Michael passed away in his home on August 14th, 2010 at the age of 60. The family he left behind are Parents Richard and Beverly Parks of Aiken, SC, Brothers Rick Parks of Orlando, FL and Eric Parks of Denver, CO as well as Sisters Pam Castle of Urbana, OH and Paula Huffman of Franklin, OH.

Michael's sudden passing has been a tremendous shock to all his family and friends.

We offer this site to the countless friends and co-workers whose lives have been touched by Michael and as a way for us all to come together during this painful time.

The celebration for Michael was a smashing success!

For those of you that attended Michael's celebration on October 23rd, we salute you!
The experience was well worth the effort and new friends were easily made.
For everyone that was busy during that time or unable to attend, we have added some pictures of time spent settling Michael into his new residence. We all think he would approve.

For pictures of Michael's send-off please click here to be taken to photos of the event.
