Patrick Parks

Patrick Lynn Parks III “P.J.” (Sep. 12, 1998 – Dec. 26, 2019) was a young man who filled the lives of those around him with warmth and laughter. Born in Fort Worth and raised near Joshua, Texas, P.J. loved baseball from an early age and spent his summers on the water, wakeboarding and tubing with family and close friends. He cherished time with his son Noah, his girlfriend Abbey, and his parents Mindi and Patrick Parks, as well as his brothers Matthew and Jaxon.

Family and friends remember P.J. for his generous, selfless nature — always ready to help someone in need — and for the close, loyal friendships he built. He shared a special bond with his grandparents and extended family, and his energy and good humor left a lasting impression on those who knew him.

Services to celebrate P.J.’s life were held in January 2020. Though his life was far too brief, his memory endures in the hearts of his loved ones and the many people he touched. May he be remembered for the joy he gave, the love he shared, and the mark he left on his family’s lives.
