what???????

Yes, very sadly, Ken passed away earlier today. Condolences to his family and many close friends, he will be really, really missed by a lot of people.

RIP

I have had this tragic news confirmed, that Ken Parker died earlier today/last night. I am not aware of the full details but am anticipating the club making a statement later tonight as appropriate, on the official web site. I believe that Ken's family are all aware.

Condolences to Ken's family, he was a genuinely nice guy who did a lot for Morecambe FC and he will be very sadly missed.

A friend and a Morecambe character, will be sadly missed.

very shocked,saw ken a month ago and he seemed to be a picture of health,Condolences to all the family.

Bloody hell that's a shock. RIP Ken. Half time won't be the same without you.

very sad news indeed, he will be missed.

Terrible news, RIP Ken

Am shocked at this tragic news.

His contribution to our and his club over the years has been tremendous.

RIP

Shocked beyond belief. Will be missed

very sad news, thoughts are with his family. RIP Ken.

condolences to all his family, didnt know Ken personally but grateful for all his hard work and the thousands he must have raised with OTB, also brought a lot of much needed humour to match days, RIP Ken and okey dokey

Just seen the news. Really shocked. Ken helped the club in some of our darkest times and has been on hand to help ever since. Always made half time funny although he never knew it most of the time. Wonderful help with the SV videos and always a smile and a joke. A lovely man and he'll be sorely missed. Thanks for everything Ken.

A wonderful character.

I remember him mumbling "Ere, stop p1ssing about!" under his breath but over the tannoy to Marky S at half-time during one of the games this season. We were losing at the time and it brought a smile to my face and made me laugh.

RIP Ken, you will be missed.

Heard about 2hrs ago Rest in peace Squeaky. You will be missed tremendously

Rest in peace, Ken. Today's win was for you...

Very sad news, RIP Ken.

okey dokey RIP Morecambe Legend

Stunned by the news. RIP Ken.

RIP Ken .................. Very sad news indeed

Gutted is an understatement.

I was shocked to hear this news tonight. I spoke to Rod and the club are also shocked an saddened. Ken was a larger than life character who is a legend at Morecambe FC. People forget he was Chairman when we were promoted form the NPL to the Conference in 1995 and he has continued to be a fan and volunteer for the club.

On a personal note Ken was a top guy who was as sharp as a tack and played along with the banter at half time. We used to chat every week before and after half time and he loved the spotlight as well as being able to help raise money for the club. He could also take the mickey out of himself (If you have any doubt click on the link below and forward to 1 minute in). I have no doubt he was laughing today when they couldnt find the key

Thank you Ken for all you have done for us. We will miss you.

R.I.P Ken

I first met him at Cumberland View Garage a good number of years whilst conducting the annual audit.

He has always looked a picture of health and it is really shocking news.

Ken was our landlord when we lived on Princes Crescent 5 years since.
He mischievously wound Doris up a couple of times on the phone.
RIP.
