Mrs. Parker was a genuine Born Again Believer who loved the Lord with ALL her heart, mind, soul and strength. She enjoyed taking time to stop and minister to people about the Lord every opportunity she had. She also had a very large heart and would help anyone who said they needed a helping hand. Some of her hobbies were sewing, planting flower and vegetable gardens, watching old comedy movies.
