IRONWOOD, Mich. - Thomas Glenn Parker, of Ironwood, went home to be with the Lord on March 15, 2018. Tom was born Aug. 7, 1933, in Cleghorn, Iowa.

He was forever proud of his family, God, and the United States Marines. We will miss his sense of humor, wisdom and love.
His family would like to thank Aspirus Ironwood Hospital for their wonderful care, compassion and delicious desserts that were always waiting for him and Regional Hospice for their kindness and comfort, especially Mary, who was always there for him and his family.
At Tom's request, no funeral services will be held.
