Nicholas A. Parks

Nicholas (Nick) Anthony Parks passed away unexpectedly in his home on November 4th, 2020 after fighting and falling victim to his battle with depression.

Born in Madison, WI on November 5, 1987, Nick was brilliant and excelled in anything he set his mind to. Even as a young child he found interest in orchids, reptiles, coins, cars, aircrafts and many more areas. From Lego buildings to racing those matchbox cars around to growing and selling orchids becoming a pro at each. To raising chameleons, attending reptile swaps and restoring a 1969 Chevy Camaro. His amazing retention of information was astounding. He adamantly defended his principals and ideals but was never unwilling to form new opinions based on new information. Nick loved fiercely and everyone near him knew unquestionably that they were cared for deeply.

Nick was mechanically driven and earned his A&P Certification from Fox Valley Technical College in 2017. He put it and his astounding skills to good use as an airplane mechanic for Morey’s Airport in Middleton WI.

Nick is survived by his Parents Richard and Mary Parks (Oshkosh, WI), Sister Sarah Parks (Madison, WI), Sister Bonnie Boldwin (Parks) and Kevin Boldwin, Brother Austin Parks (Symco, WI), Grandmother Eleanora Revels (Mt. Horeb, WI), his partner Ashley Goebel (Middleton, WI), Uncle Paul Parks (Ruth), Uncle Robert Parks, Uncle James Parks (Theresa) , Uncle Paul Mieden (Laura), Aunt Patricia Mieden, Aunt Gail Endres (Mieden), Aunt and Godmother Emma Harris (Mieden), Aunt Laura (Mieden) Vorpahl (Michael), and many cousins. And his much-loved feline ‘KiKi’.

Nick was preceded in death by his Grandfather Harland Parks, Grandmother Margaret ‘Pat’ Parks (Towey), uncle Michael Mieden, Grandfather Ervin Mieden, and his beloved dog, Colby Jack.

At this time, no formal services will be held.
