Allyson Payge Parker

With heavy hearts, we share the passing of Allyson Payge Parker, who left us too soon on January 31, 2025, at the age of 31. Born on March 13, 1993, in Fountain Valley, California, Allyson grew up in Costa Mesa, where she made countless memories with family and friends. She graduated from Newport Harbor High School in Newport Beach, California.

Allyson was a devoted mother to four beautiful children—Gabriel (10), Abigail (9), Maxwell (6), and Isabel (5)—whom she shared with her life partner, William Baltazar. Being a mom was her greatest joy, and she poured her heart into creating a loving and adventurous life for her kids. Whether it was trips to the park, beach days, or family game nights, she was always present, making every moment special. 

In 2021, Allyson and her family moved to Arlington, Texas, where she was fortunate to be close to her older sisters, spending precious time with them and their families. She cherished those relationships and loved being surrounded by loved ones. Allyson had a creative soul and a love for singing, musicals, theater, and nature. She grew up playing outdoors with her father and brother, always full of energy and laughter. She carried that same spirit into adulthood, bringing warmth and joy to everyone around her.

She is preceded in death by her mother, Elizabeth De La Cruz; her grandmother, Donna Parker; and her uncle, Tim Doss. She leaves behind her partner, William; her four children; her father, Douglas Parker (Heidi); her sisters, Stephanie De La Cruz (Brooklyn) and Kiersten De La Cruz, along with her nephew, Beni; her brother, Kyle Parker, and nephew, Kasen; her grandmother, Barbara Burrows; her grandfather, Richard Doss; her uncle, Mark Doss; the Parker family and the Baltazar family as well as many other loved family members and beautiful friends she made along the way. A memorial service will be held in California, where family and friends will come together to celebrate Allyson’s life. She was a bright light in this world, deeply loved, and will be forever missed.
