Bobby Joe Parker, affectionately referred to as “Chick’, passed away peacefully on Sunday, November 23, 2025 at his residence in Huguley, AL after a long battle with COPD.

Mr. Parker was born on March 6, 1939 in Wedowee, Alabama to the late Joe Parker and Annie Mae Fetner.

Mr. Parker was a proud employee of West Point Stevens and retired as a supervisor after 47 years of service. He loved Alabama football, Nascar, Gunsmoke, and watching his hummingbirds. He thoroughly enjoyed being outside working in his yard or a new building project. But most of all he loved his two great granddaughters Emily and Olivia. They were the light of his life, and he never missed an opportunity to brag about them.

He is survived by his granddaughter Holly (Justin) Hanners; great granddaughters Emily and Olivia Hanners; sister Helen King; and a host of nieces, nephews, family, and friends.
