Like all of the family, my best memories of Ned are at the lake in Chautauqua - with his parents, Ned and Liz, and brother, Paul, and a whole lot of friends and family. But also skiing at Holiday Valley, and if I concentrate hard, at Ned and Paul's childhood home on Sage Ave in South Buffalo. More recently, meeting up with him in Toronto while he was living there for a time, and one 4th of July a few years ago when he showed up at Mayville park for the fireworks display, taking my parents, Max and I pleasantly by surprise. I never made it up to BC, but he seemed to love it there. Getting his degree, hiking, spending time with friends, motorcycle rides...Wise and witty, warm and kind...I'll miss him and, the way he embraced life. I know he was warmly welcomed in heaven by the Parsons family there, and by his best friend, Nikita. XOXO cousin.

Always a bit of wisdom and a sometimes the biggest smile.

I loved sking with Ned. Our conversations on politics made me a Democrat feel like a Republican compared to his liberal views. My memories of Ned are of a kind, dog loving, giving gentleman that loved the outdoors, figuring things out, who loved his family. I'm sorry he is gone.

Ned introduced me to the motorcycle. He introduced me the beauty of motorcycle maintenance. He gave me a gift that changed my life and continues to give me great pleasure and freedom. We lost touch over the years but he was always in my thoughts. Ned - You will be missed. May the new road ahead be full of twists and turns. - Scruff

Ned was a great friend from Hampshire College. He was the first friend I made there and we were hall mates our first year. I have so many great memories from those days and Ned was a huge part of my experience. I fondly remember visiting Ned at his family summer home on Lake Chattaqua and skiing Holiday Park. I had great times visiting Ned in Burlington, VT, skiing Pico and deer hunting in the Green Mountains. I visited Ned in Boston years later after college and we had kept up through email and Facebook. I will always remember all the hilariious times and the most interesting conversations with Ned from our college days. My deepest sympathy to all his family. I will really miss you friend.

Neddie was the youngest of all the first cousins.  I just can't find the words.  My memories of Ned and Paul and the rest of us when we were at the lake (so long ago) are some of the happiest I have.  Paul, my deepest condolences.

My condolences and thoughts to all those who knew Ned. He is missed. A warm and giving man, thanks for the laughs.

Passed too young, everyone's loss. That I didn't know you better, my loss. Rest in peace cuz, you are missed.

Years and miles separated us but we shared the love of the same family.  Not enough time with us, but time treasured.  You're missed.

So long and thanks for the fish, you were real fun to hang out with Ted (& Nikita)

May your memories bring you comfort during this difficult time. Praying for family and friends. May Ned Rest in peace.

The breeze that blows, the leaf that falls, the bird that seems lost...Ned will be in all of them, with you always.

Ned is part of all of my memories of Chautauqua and ellicottville. God bless!

Too young, too full of life, too soon. Condolences Paul, to you and family

Now cracks a noble heart. Good night, sweet prince. And flights of angels sing thee to thy rest. 

I'm so lucky to have called you "friend."

Let wonderful memories of Ned live in your hearts and minds and he will be with you always. I pray for his family and friends and all of us who knew him ...

Such a long long time to be gone
and a short time to be here. You will be greatly missed.

Ned you were there for your mom and dad when they needed you, now you are with them in God's Heavenly Palace, Patty Wolf

At times like this, any answer to the question "why?" will never bring peace to those of us who loved Ned.  May he always have peace.

Wherever you are, I hope you have a dock with an amazing lake view and a snowy mountain ready for the perfect run.  Miss you, Neddy. Love always to you and Paul- Jenny

My very deepest condolences.  Ned was a good guy and he was one of ours!

We know where you are going, Ned you were the best rest in peace brother.

Ned had a smile and exuberance that really helped to make the day better. He was a big influence on me learning to ski. He will surely be missed.

May God bless the memory of Ned Parsons and may it be a consolation to all who knew and loved him. Rest in Peace, Ned; you left the world way to young, but you are now together with your wonderful parents.

Just the thought of your smile makes my heart happy.I am better to have known you ,if only for a while.

Miss you, bro... A million words and none can encompass the huge hole in my heart and life.

Fly High and onward, Fellow Centaur and Class Of 86er!!! Rest easy, Ned....

To Ned, Paul, and the family; 

I have fond memories of times together at CHS with the whole gang: Dan Hoyt, Twan Pham, Richard Dorittie, Eddie Cole, Paulissa Morman, etc...  May you be granted the comfort and peace of mind in knowing that Ned's untimely physical passing serves to give greater value to the precious and limited time that we had with Ned.  Please accept my condolences and prayers for your family through these difficult times...
