SPC Parker McCorvey, 26, was born on October 31, 1995 to Becky Salsbury and Al McCorvey in Albany, Georgia. He married Rosemary Flores on July 15, 2017 and the two settled in Parker’s hometown of Campbellsville, KY. On Thursday, November 25, 2021 Parker was called home to be with the Lord.

Parker devoted his life to loving those around him in a way that will far outlive him. He protected all those he held dear with a humble nobility and quiet strength. Never taking a day for granted, Parker found joy and peace in God’s creation and woke up each morning with a thirst for adventure. He captivated everyone he encountered with a contagious spirit and kind disposition.  Parker generously served others and spent his final years sacrificially serving his country. It is with that same spirit of generosity that Parker desired to help those in need with the gift of organ donation. Parker’s wife, Rosemary, was the light of his life. Their love and devotion to one another shined with a radiance that continues to inspire. Above all else, Parker professed faith in Jesus Christ and strove to glorify Him in everything he did.
