Joel White
Danny was born to Glenn Fields Parker and Frances Jean McChristial Parker on December 23, 1967, in Bakersfield, California. He passed from this life in Santa Monica, California on December 7, 2022.
Danny was preceded in death by his father, Glenn Parker. He is survived by his wife, Kristie Parker; his mother, Frances Parker; daughters, Alycia Jones and Kailey Parker; siblings Cheryl Parker, David Parker, Cari White; and brother-in-law Joel White. He is also survived by his grandchildren, Londyn and Aurora, as well as many other family and friends.
Danny worked in the Kern County oil fields and like his grandfather, he excelled in this line of work. He took pride in fighting California wild fires and learned to fell large trees. His interests ranged from making beautiful clocks, growing all kinds of plants, to writing poetry. Danny was loved by many and will be missed.
A private family memorial service will be held in Morro Bay, California, and Danny’s ashes will be taken out to sea, as was his desire.
In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to Magdalene Hope, Inc. (https://magdalenehope.org/) in Danny’s memory.
Poem by Danny Parker
Poem by Danny Parker
We live. We die.
All of this in the blink of an eye.
Can’t show up late,
Hoping God don’t close the gate.
All of our pain,
Please God, don’t let it be in vain.
I don’t want to be all alone.
Lord, can I please come home?
All of life’s problems,
There’s gotta be a reason.
I pray thy will be done.
“In due time son. In due season.”
