of Shirley, AR
March 12, 1982 - July 9, 2025
Ricky G. Parker, 43, of Shirley, Arkansas was born on March 12, 1982 to the late Donald and Lucy (Ivy) Parker in Horton, Kansas and passed from this life on July 09, 2025 in Clinton, Arkansas. He was a sought after and skilled mechanic. His love for cars was only surpassed by his love for family. Ricky was greatly involved with his nieces and nephews. He also enjoyed mudding as well as collecting guns and knives. Perhaps Ricky's greatest joy came on March 16, 2021, when he was baptized at Jumpstart Ministries.
Once more into the fray. Into the last good fight, I'll never know. Live and die on this day. Lived and die on this day. ~ Unknown
He is preceded in death by his parents and two sisters, Vicky Parker and Christine Parker.
Left to cherish Ricky's memory are two brothers, Bobby Parker, Nick Bryant (Kelly); many nieces; nephews and a host of other relatives and friends.
The family will have a Celebration of Life at a later date.
