David Parra was a great man, husband, dad, friend, brother and co-worker.    David's friends and colleagues at Medtronic greatly miss his ready smile, helpful advice, steady leadership and we continue to benefit from his wholehearted commitment to the Medtronic Mission.  To help support David's family we are asking for your help to provide funds for future education and expense needs.    David's loving wife will determine how the funds will be used.
