Gregory Allen Parsons was my dad :-) I feel him in my heart every time I look in my sons eyes. His legacy lives on in me, his only surviving daughter, and his two grandchildren. He is missed, loved, and cherished.

I worked with Greg at the Coca-Cola bottling plant in Moorhead, MN during my college years at Moorhead State. Greg was a great guy with a fantastic sense of humor. I served in the Army and did my own tour of duty in Vietnam shortly after Greg's passing. Time eases the pain, memories come and go, but the loss is forever. Rest in peace my friend.
