Myers, Parker Eugene – It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of Parker Eugene Myers, age 76 of East Chezzetcook, Nova Scotia on June 18, 2026.
Born in 1949 in Ship Harbour, Parker was a son of the late William and Thelma (Laybolt) Myers. He completed his high school education at Eastern Shore High School in Musquodoboit Harbour before attending Halifax Regional Vocational School, where he studied Mechanical Drafting.
During his college years, Parker's life changed forever when he crossed paths with a beautiful young woman on the corner of Oxford Street, a familiar face from his earlier school days. Fate brought them together and was just the beginning of Parker and Jean’s lifelong love story.
Parker loved tinkering, repairing, and creating, and his favourite place was his basement workshop, where he could often be found working on a project. He also had a lifelong passion for classic cars and was the proud owner of many over the years, including a Dodge Dart, Chevy Nova, and Ford Maverick, among others. However, the car he was most proud of was the first brand-new vehicle he ever purchased, a Gremlin Denim Edition fresh off the lot.
Those who knew Parker will remember his wonderful sense of humour, his quick wit, and his genuinely kind and caring heart.
Parker is survived by his son, Jason; his granddaughter, Chantal; his daughter, Rhonda (Andre); and his granddaughters, Haylee and Zoey. He is also survived by his sister, Vivian (Carl) Kent; brothers, Wayne (Bertha) Myers and Leon (Billie) Myers; sisters-in-law, Shirley Myers and Donna Myers; and many cherished nieces and nephews.
Parker was predeceased by his beloved wife, Elizabeth “Jean” Myers; his father, William Myers; his mother, Thelma Myers; his stepmother, Lillian Myers; his sister, Delores (Carl) Stevens; and his brothers, Marshall Myers and Floyd Myers.
The family would like to express their heartfelt gratitude to the compassionate staff of Moody Hall for the exceptional care, kindness, and support they provided to Parker during his time there.
Parker’s memory will live on in the stories shared, the laughter remembered, and the love he gave so freely to family and friends.
A Graveside ceremony will be held at a later date.
"Those we love don't go away; they walk beside us every day."
