A very good man

Our family is working through some very sad news…a dear friend of Erin’s family, Steve Parks, was killed in a car accident on April 13th in Austin. The Parks family has been part of my Austin ‘tribe’ for almost as long as I can remember. I babysat their daughter, Sarah, for years. Steve and Louise threw my high school graduation party and helped arrange Jake and I’s wedding. The list of their involvement in my life so long and personal that I can’t even list it here. Steve was a kind, generous, and intelligent man. He is well loved by my whole family and famous on the Sewall side for being able to sing the Maine county song by heart. We are crushed by his early death and heartbroken for Louise, Sarah, Ursi, and Rob.
