My name is Crystal and I’m Terry Parnell’s niece.

Uncle Terry passes peacefully at his home Monday July 21st. Just as he wanted. He had been battling cancer for the last few years now. Back last October 2024 is when we were told that this last treatment was the last resort and after that there was nothing they could do. At that point he was givin about a year and we made the best of the last 8 months. About May is when he made his final decision to do no more treatments and to go on hospice for the remainder of his time. Needless to say he himself has not been able to work for a while now. So we’re just trying to get him cremated and give him a proper memorial. Cause he really was one of the best uncles. When my parents died (his sister) he was one of the ones that never let me and my siblings feel like we were alone in this world. If there is anything you can donate to help it is greatly appreciated. If you rather donate straight to the funeral home that will be good. I want to thank anyone and everyone in advance.

funeral home is Carter-Rick’s in Winfield Mo.
