He joins his Mother (Sergeant Parker), His Big/Little Sister Dawn Collins and his Brother in-law Vernon Collins along with so many other loved ones. Dad was born in Hudson Falls NY on November 22, 1943 to Adele E Parker and Clarence M Dashnaw.
Before Dad became a father, on December 29, 1960 he became a Marine and served his country until November 24, 1966. Not only was he a proud Marine, we were proud Daughters of a Marine.

Granddaughters Ashley, Katie-lyn, Emiliegh and Hayliegh. Great Grandsons Landon and Oliver. Step Granddaughters Kayleona, Jaslyn, Autumn and Adalynn.
Dad was raised and loved by many on Delaware Avenue, being raised by a single mother the other mothers loved and help guide him too. I had the pleasure as a child to know Nancy, Ruth and Hilda until their passing. Thank you, ladies, for loving my Dad. Thank you, Betty, for taking care of dad these last couple years. Dad Loved fishing, westerns and anything to do with John Wayne.
A Prayer for my Dad
