Andrea Chamblee Parker was forthright with her feelings and opinions that came with a balance of kindness and compassion and a dose of her love for Jesus. She was always proud to display her love of family. She was known for her love of music and fierce independence. She was very involved in the body of Christ and most recently attended Crosspoint City Church. You could always find her working a crossword, singing, spending time with family, watching a show about birds or puppies or kittens, taking care of everybody she loved, and wearing her lively holiday-themed hats.
Andrea was born to the late Addison and Irene Chamblee (nee McVey) in Aberdeen, MS, on February 20, 1933. She graduated from Milton High School in 1951. She placed her faith and trust in Jesus as her Savior and Lord at a young age. God lead her to meet her sweetheart Virgil in the church choir. They married in June of 1950 and began a life together of service to God, country, and family. Andrea passed away on Thursday, July 17, 2024, after a short series of illnesses.
