It is with deep sadness that we announce the passing of our beloved, Tabitha Aliene Parrish, who passed away on March 30, 2025 at the age of 84 in Vero Beach, Florida.

Born on March 26, 1941, in Eolia, Kentucky, the family then moved to Roda, Virgina. She was a dedicated and loving wife to her late husband, Charles Henry, and a devoted mother to her children Rickey Ray (her caregiver Mary Harris), Michael Anthony (Jackie, her grandchildren Scott and Lindsey), Jeffery Lee, and preceded in death by Jennifer Lynn.

Her loving siblings, Bob Cooper (Beulah), Emma Lou Henley (Demps), Charlotte, Patricia, Ben Cooper (Anne), Yolanda Barnette (Coy), Glinda Blanton (Benny), Jewell Carroll (Bob), Jerry Cooper (Nancy), and Debbie Hampton (Lynn) cherish the life they had with her. Her nieces, nephews and cousins were incredibly important to her and held a special place in her heart.

Aliene lived a fulfilling life and was always the highlight of family gatherings. She loved a party with all her loved ones around her, and her love and compassion extended to all those who knew her. She will be remembered for her laughter and swagger, and she loved with all her heart.

Rest in peace, dear mother, grandmother, sister, aunt, cousin, and friend. You will forever be in our hearts and memories……..

Matthew 6:30-34…shall he not much more clothe you, O ye of little faith?31 Therefore take no thought, saying, What shall we eat? or, What shall we drink? or, Wherewithal shall we be clothed? 32 (For after all these things do the Gentiles seek:) for your heavenly Father knoweth that ye have need of all these things.33 But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.34 Take therefore no thought for the morrow: for the morrow shall take thought for the things of itself. Sufficient unto the day is the evil thereof.
