Listen to Obituary

May Parkerson, 48, passed away peacefully on July 17, 2025, in Atlanta, Georgia, with her beloved husband by her side.


Born on July 15, 1977, in Ban Vinai refugee camp, Thailand, May's life was a beautiful testament to resilience, love, and generosity. A devoted wife and nurturing mother, she consistently put her family's needs before her own. May's quiet strength and steady presence were the heart of her home. She and her husband shared a passion for motorcycles, often enjoying joyrides together. With her daughters, she was a constant source of encouragement, always offering love and support. May's compassion reached far beyond her family. She was deeply involved in her church community, where she dedicated herself to helping the homeless and those in need. Her kindness touched many lives and left a legacy of service and empathy. Her life was one of unwavering love, strength, and selflessness-a legacy that will continue to inspire all who had the privilege of knowing her.


May is survived by her devoted husband, Wesley Parkerson, and her three beloved daughters: Dahlia, Ariel and Kylye. She also leaves behind her mother, Ma Her, and siblings: Thai, Youa, Chia, Xao, Xai, Koua, Amy, and Susan. She was preceded in death by her father, Tong Ying Her, and two older brothers, Thong and Lue.


"I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith." 2 Timothy 4:7
