John Harold Parnell

of Hughes, AR

May 22, 1950 - January 3, 2022

John Harold Parnell, 71, of Hughes, Arkansas passed away Monday January 3, 2022. John is proceeded in death by his parents Gene and Annie Faye Parnell; Three brothers Wilbur, Bobby and David Parnell; Two sisters Donna Stokes and Sarah Faye Parnell. John is survived by two sons John Allen Parnell and Jacob Lee Parnell; Two sisters Vickie Parnell and Judy Butler; three brothers Michael, Larry, and Gary Parnell; six grandkids Anna, Danni, Connor, Cami, Brooklynn, and Jaxon; and a slew of cousins, nieces and nephews.

John was a Vietnam veteran and was very proud to have served his country. In his spare time, you could usually find him visiting with his friends at the U-Haul store, watching his favorite television show, or playing his solitaire game on his phone. John was the type of person to where if he didn't give you a hard time, then he didn't like you.

There will be no services at this time, but a memorial will be held at a later date. He will be greatly missed.

Uncle John, you were the first one to ever give me a ride on a motorcycle.. We rode from mom's funeral back to the house.. Momma was always jealous of your hair by the way. Fly High Uncle John. I love you.

John will definitely be missed by so many people. Just like the obituary says if John didn’t give you a hard time then he didn’t like you. I will always cherish the memories of riding motorcycles with him, my dad and my mom. John Allen and Jacob praying for y’all during this hard time. Just remember all of the good times with him. Love y’all.
