Bobby G. ParkmanBrandon
Bobby George Parkman, husband, father, grandfather, brother, and friend—August 9, 1935-February 14, 2012
A life well lived ended peacefully while surrounded by his loving family. He is survived by his loving wife of 30 years, Jo, his 6 children: Adam Parkman (Cindy), Sherry Parkman Boyd (Marc), Monica Parkman Corley (Steve), Glenn Miller (June), Ronnie Miller (deceased), and Christopher Parkman, sister Dorothy Parkman Steverson, wife-in-law Barbara Martin, 7 grandchildren: Brooke Lee, Blake Parkman, Jessie Parkman, Rob Miller, Bailey Miller, Shaylen Corley, and Adam Johnson. He also has many nieces, nephews, and other extended family members. In addition, he also had 5 exchange students who were like his children, Christian of Germany, Sebastian of Germany, Anna of Germany, Antti of Finland, and Ae Ae of Thailand. He was preceded in death by his parents, Wallace and Nell Parkman. All of these family members meant the world to him.
Bobby was the owner of Appliance Service in Brandon for over 40 years. He was a hard working, honest, and dedicated business-man, respected by many. Bobby lived life to the fullest through his interests such as 4-wheeling, motorcycling, riding through the mountains and sand dunes, traveling, shooting fire arms, and many other adventures. Of all things, he loved his English Bulldogs the most.
We would like to thank the following people for their help and care during his recent illness: Brandon Police Department, Brandon Fire Department, Crossgates River Oaks Hospital, University Medical Center, the staff of the downtown Waffle House, and the phantom motorcyclist who performed CPR.
Visitation will be at Ott and Lee Funeral home in Brandon, Wednesday, February 15, 2012 from 5-9p.m., and the funeral will be in the chapel at 1p.m. on Thursday, February 16, 2012, with burial in Crestview Memorial Gardens at 1106 Star Road in Brandon. In lieu of flowers, contributions can be made in his memory at the American Cancer Society if so desired.
