Ryan Jacob Parker, a beloved father, son, brother, grandson, and friend, passed away Thursday, February 13, 2025, in Monticello, AR, leaving behind a legacy of strength, love, and unwavering faith. He was a man who faced life’s challenges with courage, embodying the true spirit of a fighter. He was born July 29, 2004, in Ft. Benning, GA.
A God-fearing man, Ryan found strength in his faith, and it guided him through every battle he faced. He was a hero in the eyes of those who knew him—a warrior who never backed down and always fought for those he loved. His heart was full of love, especially for his son, Ezra, who was his greatest joy and inspiration.
Ryan had a contagious energy, a love for music, and a passion for dancing that could brighten any room. His smile could light up even the darkest of days, bringing warmth and joy to those around him. His laughter was infectious, and his humor could lift even the heaviest of hearts. He cherished his family deeply, holding them close in both good times and bad. Ryan was preceded in death by a brother, Pierre Parker.
He is survived by his son, Ezra Parker of Hot Springs, AR; his girl, Maddie Collins of Hot Springs, AR; his mother, Felisha Simpson Parker of Crossett, AR; his father, William Shane Parker of Pensecola, FL; his siblings, Kaleb, Christian, & David Parker of Hagerstown, MD, twins: Tye & True Parker of Dothan, AL, twins: Jaxson & Jase Parker of Dothan, AL and Kinsley Athena of Dothan, AL; grandparents, Henry & Sheila Simpson of Monticello, AR, Roger & Betty Gail Creed of Dothan, AL and David Parker of Monticello, AR.
Though he is no longer with us, his spirit will forever live on in the hearts of those who loved him. His strength, faith, and love will continue to inspire us, and his memory will never fade. Rest easy, Ryan. You fought the good fight, and your legacy will never be forgotten.
Funeral services will be 3:00 p.m. Tuesday, February 25, 2025, at First Free Will Baptist Church with Rev. Justin Morphis officiating. There will be a visitation preceding the funeral service at the church from 12:00-3:00 p.m. You can sign Ryan’s guestbook page on this website.
