Santa Clara – Our son, brother, and friend, Parker Alan Lambson,21, born April 8, 1999 in Orem, Utah, passed away unexpectedly late Tuesday the January 26, 2021 at Gunlock, Utah.

Parker leaves behind his parents: Kaleen & Dave Talley; father, Arden; brothers: Alex (Whitney), Kiel (Jaicelyn), Skyler, and Jordan; sister, Courtney; and his dog, Dixie, along with other extended family members.  He also leaves behind many great friends that he considered family.  He was preceded in death by his adoring Grandma, Linneer and two grandfathers.

Parker graduated from Snow Canyon High School with the Class of 2017 and was attending Dixie State University. He was naturally athletic and played many sports while growing up and always made them look easy.  He played on the SCHS Soccer, Rugby and Football Teams, but basketball became life after High School. He played on every College intramural team he could, even in a Corn Hole tournament with his brother, Kiel, last year.  His competitive nature was contagious, and he did not miss many opportunities to play basketball on Thursday nights with friends and neighbors.  He used sports to connect us all; either in the game or planning to get us together to watch one.  You could be hundreds of miles away and he would still tease you and goof around while still bringing passion to the game that you could not resist.  He also spent time playing video games with friends from his childhood, building legos with and for his brother, Alex, and taking Dixie out for runs.

Parker liked to have fun, he loved the outdoors and spent many summers at Scout and Soccer camps. He was sent to this earth with a very special mission and that mission was accomplished.  He knew the importance of family and friends and was always quick to help you, he was one of the most caring people we will ever know.  He was able to make people feel comfortable around him and had a huge heart.

Because he valued the time with us more than the activity, Parker will be missed by all of us, especially his mom and Dave #3amigos.  Parkers kindness allowed him to build lifelong connections with people of all ages that most people can't,  making all around him feel like they were the most important to him whenever they were together.  Even if he was blocking your shot on the Field or the Court.

He impacted the lives of many and was loved by all.  We were blessed to have him in our lives, and his memory will live on forever.
