Kendall Wayne Parrish

Kendall Wayne Parrish, 57, passed away on October 20, 2026 in his residence in TN. He was born on May 20, 1969, in Houston, Texas, to Esther and Tommy Parrish. Kendall was a man remembered with deep respect and affection, and his life reflected a steady love for others and a faithful devotion that guided his days.

Kendall was preceded in death by his parents, Esther and Tommy Parrish, and by his two nephews and niece, BJ, Josh, and Sarah Ann. He is survived by his sister, Thressa Privett (Randy), and his brother, Billy Parrish, as well as his nephew, Aiden Privett. He is also survived by two special caregivers, Tracy Scott and Connie Westmoreland, whose care and presence were meaningful parts of his life.

Kendall found joy and pride in what he loved. His appreciation for his flag and for the Special Olympics—especially skiing and fishing—spoke to the sincere enthusiasm he carried for the things that mattered to him, as did his fondness for the colors red, white, and blue. He also enjoyed playing putt putt golf with his family, treasuring time spent together in simple, lasting ways.

Above all, Kendall’s love for God remained central, a quiet strength that shaped his life and will be remembered by those who knew him.

A Memorial Service will be held in TN at a later date.
