During World War II, he proudly served his country in the Army Air Corps in numerous places in Texas, Florida, North Carolina, New Jersey, Ohio and London, England.

On May 15, 1947, he married the love of his life, Marjorie Merle Stovall. Always interested in most spectator sports, he played basketball, baseball, golf, and softball. He also bowled in the City League for a number of years. He was a loyal son and brother, a loving husband and father, and wonderful grandfather and great-grandfather.

Obituary (Grace (Garrett) Parker)

Mrs. Grace Garrett Parker, 94, of Tomball, Texas, passed away August 27, 2013, in a Tomball assisted living center. She was born October 8, 1918, in Houston, Texas, to Roland Garrett and Josie Arnold. She was raised in IOOF and Rebekah’s Home for Widows and Orphans in Corsicana, Texas, from December 8, 1932. Mrs. Parker graduated from the orphanage in 1937, and continued to be close to and remembered those who still lived there. She rarely missed the opportunity to attend homecoming to visit her brothers and sisters at this self-contained “Beautiful Home.” After Mrs. Parker graduated, she lived with a foster father, Porter B. Rawson, until her marriage to Mose Parker in 1941. Later, she and her husband took care of Mr. Rawson in their home until his death.
