Family, Friends Remember Jimmy Parks, Jr. -- Mileka Lincoln
The San Antonio legal community is reeling after news prominent attorney Jimmy Parks Jr. unexpectedly died Sunday.
The accomplished defense lawyer was also a doting husband, father
and grandfather. Married to his high-school sweetheart 43 years,
friends say there was nothing more important to Parks than his family.
His two children say he was a generous man who led by example.
Grandchildren remember him as a devoted fan, who never missed a game.
At 61, Parks showed no sign of slowing down. Just last week
Thursday, he announced his intent to run for Congress. Family members
say it was just another way the man who lived by the "Golden Rule"
planned to give back to the community he loved.
The medical examiner determined Parks died from a heart condition known as dialated cardio myopathy.
A viewing for Parks will take place Friday from 6 - 8 p.m. at
Porter Loring North Chapel on Loop 1604. Services will follow Saturday
at 11 a.m. at the Community Bible Church's main sanctuary, also on Loop
1604.
