of New Blaine, AR

September 27, 1933 - November 4, 2023

Howard C. (Bill Jack) Parker, 90, of New Blaine, Arkansas passed away on Saturday, November 4, 2023 in Fayetteville, Arkansas. He was born on September 27, 1933 in New Blaine to his parents, Harrison and Mrytle (Jones) Parker.

Bill Jack proudly served his country in Germany for the United States Army. He started working at a very young age helping his dad and older brother cut timber. He later worked in auto body repair for Gosnell in Russellville and Paris Ford where he later retired. He and his wife, Carolyn, raised parakeets for many years. He loved coon and deer hunting and fishing. He always was known to raise a large garden and cut many ricks of firewood for his entire family and many members of the community to enjoy. He was a devoted Christian, husband and father and was a valuable member of the Church of Christ in New Blaine. Anyone that new Bill Jack would be able to recall one of his lifetime stories because he had many and he will be greatly missed.

looking back now after the family reunion Anna and me stayed a few days with uncle Bill and aunt Carolyn. Even though the stay was short i will always cherish the time we had together. The little things like a early morning breakfast of cheerios, my favorite, watching classic westerns and just siting out in the car port and listening to your stories. These thoughts will always be with me. I will miss you

Now this was a good level headed man with a lot of common sense. I didn’t know him real well but when I was the chairman of the Logan County Election Commission, I can tell you he was a great public servant. Condolence’s to the family and celebrate a great life.

Bill Jack and his family were a very important part of my growing up. I remember him as a kind soft spoken man. He told stories and enjoyed his family.
He was always working but was at church everytime the doors were open. I have nothing but good memories of him and his family. To his family, I am sorry for your loss and know he will be missed, but what a joy to know he is rejoicing in heaven.

Uncle Bill Jack was a very kind and caring Christian man. In my almost 62 years I never once seem him upset or heard him raise his voice. He was so good to my dad especially in the last years of his life when daddy was homebound. I know that he is in a much better place rejoicing with those who have gone before him. Special prayers for my Aunt Carolyn and my cousins Pam and Brad and their families. Prayers for peace and comfort. Blessings to all....Mitcheal

Mr Parker came over and introduced himself when Jeff and I was up at our place in New Blaine , he wanted to cut wood that had been dozed down, this was couple years ago ! He was such a nice man, We knew he was a good man just by meeting him the first time, enjoyed our visits when he came over, enjoyed the stories he told us about the area, and people . We were wondering about him not long ago, He made a great first impression, he was a hardworking , God fearing man, a joy to have met. His family has our sympathies, he will be missed.
