Obituary of Kevin G. Parks

Kevin passed away on June 29th after a short battle with Glioblastoma brain cancer. Kevin is survived by his wife of 47 years, Rita, his daughter Stacy (Stephen) Albahari, grandson Dillon, sister Barbara Parks, brother-in-law Edward (Anna) Punch, his little Golden Doodle buddy Mishko, Aunt Elaine Luciano plus many cousins and wonderful friends.

Kevin had a passion for Boats, whether cruising on one or fixing one you could always find Kevin around boats. When he was not around boats you would find him having a nice cold beer at one of our wonderful waterfront establishments.

Kevin was a member of many organizations. He was a "friends" of the Antique Boat Museum in Clayton, NY where he spent much time each summer. He was also a member of the Irondequoit Bay Fish and Game Club, the Rochester Sail and Power Squadron, The NRA, Sons of the American Legion Irondequoit post 134, and the Rochester Rifle Club.

A special thank you to the caring staff at Unity Hospital who were there for Kevin around the clock for 20 days.
