Parker, Bethany Arden

DELMAR — Bethany Arden Parker went home to be with Jesus on May 16, 2022. She is now free from her struggles and is at peace with her Lord and Savior.

Born on December 23, 1991, Bethany grew up in Delmar and graduated from Bethlehem Central High School in 2010. She blessed everyone around her with her with love, creativity, and infectious laugh. Her cricut accompanied many of her projects, and she loved creating in a variety of mediums. She was also known for her customized, ornate gift baskets.

Bethany loved spending time with family and friends, especially her nieces and nephews: Natalie, Caleb, Nathan, Jack, and Charlotte whom she adored and who lovingly referred to her as "Aunt Bethy."

Bethany was a beloved daughter, sister, aunt, and friend and is survived by her parents, Paul and Alice Parker (Hoffman); and siblings, Breanna (Chris) and Paul (Sarah). She also had many aunts, uncles, and cousins and a feline confidant, Owen.

Calling hours are on Friday, May 20, from 9-11 a.m. immediately followed by a memorial service in King’s Chapel, 440 Route 9W, Glenmont. A graveside service will follow in the Bethlehem Cemetery.

In lieu of flowers, the family asks donation to be sent to the New Faith for Women’s Program at the Capital City Rescue Mission.
