Tonight, let's remember the smiling face of our friend and classmate Mac Parker and the last time many of us last saw him at Coty's during our class reunion. Mac died in his sleep Tuesday night or early Wednesday morning of an apparent heart attack. Nona, his twin, spoke with her brother Sunday night, and he had never been happier, she says. He and his wife, Sue, were restoring an old house in Enterprise. Nona said that Mac had converted to Catholicism and he and Sue are devout Catholics.
When Mac went to bed Tuesday night, he was complaining about not feeling well but refused to go to the emergency room. He went to bed and never woke up.
Visitation will be Friday, June 12th, at Webb Funeral Home, Meridian, from 6:00 to 8:00 p.m. Services will be Saturday morning at 10:00 at St. Patrick's Catholic Church with burial to follow in Magnolia Cemetery.
The family is staying at the Hampton Inn in Meridian.
Sue Parker's address: County Rd # 367, Enterprise, MS 39330

It is so sad to hear of another one of our classmates dying.
It is very sobering. Makes us realize that as each day passes, we all have one less day here. Which should make us want to focus on what is truly important in life - our family and friends.
We should all be thinking about how the world will remember us. Are we living the life we wish to be remember by?
It is very sad to hear about Mac. He seemed so happy at the class reunion. My son James was driving around the countryside a few years ago and met Mac. Mac was renovating a house which was or which became his home. James thought he was a great person and enjoyed meeting him.
