Randy is proceeded in death by his father Forrest R. Parker Sr., his mother Anna Elizabeth G. Parker, his sister Kathy Pate.
He is survived by his loving wife, Suzanne Parker, sisters, Dianne Jeffries (Greg), Gayle Elkins (Marvin), Brother-in-Law Lin Pate, children, Jessica Newberry (Marc), son, Forrest "Trip" Parker III (Rickeya), and grandchildren, Kaylee Brooke, Allie, Clara, Forrest IV and Briar, and several nieces and nephews.
