Travis
was a young
man who was as talented, and as kind, as anyone we have ever
known. He leaves behind his two year old
daughter Tricia Rose Parker, his parents Mac
and Nora, and sister Jamie.

Friends
and fans:
Thanks
to all who have enjoyed and supported the
Travis Parker Band these last years.
The enthusiastic
response from everyone attending their shows
and purchasing CD's, was a great joy
to him.
Please feel free to jot down any memories
and send them (along with any photos or other memorabilia)
to Tricia Rose.

This way she
can learn about her father's life and legacy, once she has grown old
enough to understand it all.
Update
- In 2012 Travis's mother Nora passed away.
His father Mac continues to administer
the benevolent trust for Tricia Rose (who is now
ten years old!) from his new home in Oregon.

In loving memory of our friend, Travis Roy Parker
Our
dear friend virtuoso fiddle player/songwriter, Travis
Parker died Monday August 2, 2004. The result
of a shooting as leaving The Music Store
in Orange County where he gave music lessons.
"There is
an arrest, and with bail set
at two million dollars. Investigators are treating
this death as a homicide."
Written
eight years ago, it seems like just yesterday...
Ultimately, the man arrested for Travis's
murder was tried and convicted, sentenced to life
in a California prison without possibility of parole.

We
have faith in the Maker's plan. Even when at
times it all seems beyond comprehension.
Our hearts go out to Travis's family.
God
bless Travis and peace be on his immortal soul.
All
who knew him will deeply miss him.
