Mary Parks Pridemore

It is with great sadness we announce the death of Mary Pridemore on April 30th, 2026. She was 79 years old, being born on September 9th, 1946.

Mary was a wonderful, hardworking woman whose greatest joy in life has been her family. Her husband, children and grandchildren held such a special place in her heart, and her presence will be eternally missed. During her life, she was able to provide for her family by being a photographer, cosmetologist, and driving a truck with her husband. She was a true matriarch of the family.

She is preceded in death by her parents Burton Charles Parks and Loretta Green, brother Charles Parks, her son Charles “Chucky” Parks, and loving husband Carl Thomas Pridemore.

Left to mourn her absence is her daughter Brandi Bishop, son Thomas (Whitney Moore) Pridemore, and Patrick (Lauren) Pridemore. She was blessed with eight grandchildren, Maria Dawn (Brandon Baker) Pridemore, Ty Thomas (Summer)Williams, Eli Patrick Williams, Allison Kay Pridemore, Ivy Jane Pridemore, Levi Joseph Pridemore, Tomlyn Noelle Moore, and Waverly Autumn Pridemore. There are also four great grandchildren Harper Bordonaro, Jaxson Yeary, Tallulah Baker, and Hudson Williams. Sister-in-law and very special friend Patsie Parks. We all loved her deeply.

Pallbearers will be Thomas Pridemore, Patrick Pridemore, Ty Williams, Eli Williams, Jordan Yeary, and Michael Bishop.
