BURGAW — Christopher Scott Parker, 28, was born Jan. 6, 1990. He left the problems of this world when he entered eternal rest Friday, June 22, 2018.
In addition to his parents, Matt and Brandy Wilcox, Chris is survived by his father, Scott Parker; grandparents, Foster Oliver and Jay and Susan Wilcox; brother, Wyatt Wilcox; aunts, Paige Oliver, Amy Wilcox, Jeana Johnson (Chris), Denise Gurganious (Dean), Christy Furr (Steve); special uncle, Larry Rose (Diane), and four additional uncles, Wayne Oliver (Dawn), Mike Schultz (Amy), Billy Ross (Jo) and Butch Beaudry; a host of cousins and friends; and the love of his life, Chelsea Thompson.
He was preceded in death by his paternal grandparents, Joe and Jeannette Parker; and maternal grandmother, Carol Freeman, who we know was waiting for him happily at heaven’s gate.
In the short time Chris had on this earth, he lived life to the fullest. When he wasn’t lighting up the room with his brilliant smile and dazzling blue eyes, you could find him and his faithful companion, Elvis, hunting or fishing the days away.
In death, Chris broke the bondage of his addiction and for that we are grateful. We find peace knowing we will all see him again on the other side.
A memorial service will be held at 4 p.m., Saturday, June 30, at the Victory Christian Fellowship, 12646 US Hwy 117, Rocky Point.
