White Lake Township, MI — Robert Alexander Parsons Jr., affectionately known as "Bob," recently passed away on October 26, 2024, leaving his family and the community in mourning. Born on January 6, 1973, Bob was a devoted husband, father, and respected engineer, cherished by friends and family alike.
Known for his warmth, hospitality, and love for his community, Bob’s home was often a lively gathering spot, where family and friends joined for volleyball games and fellowship. His passion for volleyball ran deep, as he dedicated himself to playing and coaching, encouraging all who joined his spirited games. Bob’s love for family extended to cherished traditions, especially family vacations to Destin, FL, a favorite destination.
Bob’s faith was a cornerstone of his life, reflected in his service to various ministries and his generosity in welcoming others into his home for gatherings, fellowship, and celebration. Close to his heart was the song "I Can Only Imagine" by Mercy Me, and he even took singing lessons to honor his love for music. Above his bed was a reminder of his dedication to his beliefs: "Start your day with Him and end your day with Him."
Bob is remembered lovingly by his wife, Robin, and their six children, as well as his parents, Robert and Rosemary Parsons. He also leaves behind extended family, friends, and the many lives he touched through his kindness and faith. A fundraiser organized by Matt and Krissy Sparre has raised $750 so far, out of a $25,000 goal, to help support the Parsons family during this time.
Expressions of sympathy have poured in on social media, with Sharlene Loomis sharing heartfelt words, “You touched many lives in so many ways.” Todd Holmes echoed similar sentiments, “Please Lord, peace and comfort to all that know and love Bob.” Helen Sloat Lawrence and Kimm Scott-Delavan also expressed condolences, saying, “My heart goes out to the family” and “I am so sorry for your loss.”
Visitation will be held on November 7, 2024, at Mt Zion Church in Clarkston, MI, with the funeral immediately following.
Our thoughts and prayers go out to Bob’s family and friends. May his memory bring comfort and peace to those who loved him.
