Patricia (Patti) Ann Parker passed away peacefully at her home in Oklahoma City on Saturday, March 29, 2025, at the age of 71.

Patti was an intelligent and independent woman who found joy in spending time with her family, reading, and visiting the beach. She had a fondness for sweets and a special way of using nicknames to express affection.

She earned a bachelor's degree in psychology and a master's in criminal justice administration, which led her to a diverse and fulfilling career. Over the years, Patti worked as an administrative assistant, a probation and parole officer, and was a small business owner. Among her many accomplishments, she especially cherished the time she spent running her snowball stands, taking great pride in their success and the connections she made with the community.

Patti touched the lives of many and will be deeply missed.

She is survived by her loving husband of 49 years, Bob Parker; her children, Marc Parker, Jill Graffigna, Felix Parker, and Joel Parker; and her grandchildren, Jackson and Cooper Graffigna, and Arlo and Loretta Rosenthal-Parker.

A celebration of Patti's life will be held at a later date.
