Jacob Ross Parish, of Harwood, went to be with the Lord on Saturday, September 15, 2007. He was born November 28, 1987 in Lufkin to Joe and Kathy Parish.
Jacob was preceded in death by his grandparents, Rev. John Bryan, George (Bo) Lee and Granny Parish.
He is survived by his beloved parents, Joe and Kathy Parish of Harwood. He is also survived by his loving grandmothers, Ada Lee of Diboll and Elizabeth Bryan of Garrison. Jacob was blessed with wonderful aunts and uncles who loved him very much, Butch and Charolette Parish, Dianne and Kirk Ulmer, Gina and Jim Bo Wright, Bobby Lee, Ollie Nutter, Shirley and Joe Self, Barbara and Marcus Peterson, John and Teresa Bryan and Ruthie and Jerry Williard. Jacob is survived by many loving friends and two special friends, Ralph and Patti Williams who he dearly loved.
Jacob was a proud 2007 graduate of Lockhart High School and was attending Austin Community College. He was a student advisor for FFA, played soccer and football, and won many awards for his livestock. Jacob loved to hunt and fish with his best friend, his dad, and shared their "stories" with anyone who had time to listen. Jacob never met a stranger and always had the time to talk and listen. The best way to remember Jacob is to think of the many ways knowing him blessed your life. His prayer for all who live on is for them to come to know Jesus as their Lord and Savior and spend eternity with him in Heaven. Memorial contributions may be given to the First Lockhart Baptist Church Youth Mission Fund.
