Collin Co., TX - Obits: Loyd Alton Parker ***************************************************** This file was contributed for use in the USGenWeb by: Karen Beda USGenWeb Archives. Copyright. All rights reserved http://www.usgwarchives.net/copyright.htm ***************************************************** Loyd Alton Parker Truly “death loves a shining mark.” On last Friday evening the death angel visited the home of Prof. W. Parker and wife and took the only babe out of their home. Rev. Pearce of Westminster conducted funeral services. The little one was interred in Cottage Hill Cemetery Saturday afternoon. Mrs. Parker formerly lived here, and we deeply sympathize with them in this, their deepest sorrow. One by one the precious little lambs are being gathered home.
