Parker Theodore Frisch

Parker Theodore Frisch, age 11, passed away unexpectedly on May 21, 2023 at Northwestern Medicine in Huntley, Illinois.

Parker was born on November 22, 2011 in Barrington, Illinois to loving parents Matthew and Sara Frisch. Parker adored watching Nascar racing and had a particular fondness for the voice of Dale Earnhardt, Jr. He also enjoyed books, his Billy Beats machine, and relished any opportunity for a stare down competition with his late Grandma Liz. Parker was greatly loved and will be deeply missed by Stella, his beloved pup, who couldn’t wait for Parker to get home each day on the bus and always came to his side when she knew he was in distress. In his short time with us, he touched the lives of many and anyone who knew him would agree that his smile could light up a room. He was well-loved by his friends and the staff of Glacier Ridge Elementary where he was a 5th grader this year. His passing has left a void in the hearts of all who knew and loved him.

Parker is survived by his parents, Matthew and Sara; brother, Miles; maternal grandparents, David and Judy Theodore; paternal grandfather, Terry Frisch; nonnie, Sheila Almstead; aunts and uncles, Stacy and Mike Fusilier, Jennifer (Frisch) Moe, Jessica Fenton, and Isabell Fenton; and cousins, Autumn, Mason, and Gavin. He was preceded in death by his beloved grandmother, Elizabeth “Liz” Frisch.

Visitation will be from 3pm until the funeral service at 7:30pm Thursday, May 25 at Davenport Family Funeral Home, 419 E. Terra Cotta Ave (Route 176), Crystal Lake. Interment will be private.
