It is with profound sadness that we announce the unexpected passing of Mark D. Parker, age 59, on Sept 10, 2026.

A devoted husband, loving father and an even better man. Mark will be remembered for his can-do attitude, willingness to help out others, love of hunting and riding 4-wheelers along with many other things. He was incredibly selfless and hardworking. There wasn’t a problem he faced that he couldn’t find a solution to.

He was very proud to have served in the United States Marine Corps.

Services with military honors will be held at DFW National Cemetery on Thursday, October 1, 2026. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to Transform Veteran Lives - DAV (Disabled American Veterans)
