“Bunny” Margaret A Parker

Bunny was a long time Renton resident; she was born in Hendersonville NC on August 19, 1941 to the parents of Hazel and Harry Corn. Bunny grew up as an Army brat and moved all over the country until she landed in Tacoma WA. She graduated from Clover Park high school in 1959.

She and King were introduced in 1965 by a family friend while Bunny worked as an executive secretary for Texaco. On July 3, 1967 she married her best friend in a chapel located in the Silver Queen Saloon in Virginia City, NV.

Bunny and King started their business in 1982. Bunny was the accountant, top sales person and the driving force at the store, as well as keeping King in check. She worked until 1987 to be more behind the scenes at King and Bunnys Appliances and to help their son Shannon in his business as a florist and delivery person.

She was a very caring and compassionate person to anyone who came into her home. She was a non judgmental person with a heart of gold and would help anyone in need, whether it was to talk, give advice or just lend an ear.

Bunny was a wonderful wife, mother, friend and confidant to many. She loved giving more than receiving. She was always there to help her family, extended family and their friends in whatever it may be.

Bunny will be deeply missed, by not only her family, extended family and friends but also this greater community of Renton.

She is survived by her husband King, and her son Jason and his wife Terri, Peter, Boo and her grandchildren Kaily and Becca preceded in death by eldest son Shannon Parker.

Bunny would want us all to celebrate her life.
