Jack Parks, 21, was only five weeks into his senior year at Texas Tech when he passed away in a car accident on Sept. 19, 2024.

“Everybody knew Jack, and Jack knew everybody,” said Jori Parks, Jack’s mother.

The Parks family is from Paducah, a small town in the Texas Panhandle. While Jack only graduated from high school with 22 people, one of those 22 followed him to Tech.

“I want people to know how selfless he (Jack) was as a person and how highly anyone that met him would speak about him and his character,” said Tate Hutchinson, a graduate athletic training student and friend of Jack’s. “He was a driving leader in anything he did, and he was involved in everything from whenever we were classmates together in high school — never had a task that he wouldn’t give 100 percent, and never said no to a task even if he didn’t want to do it. He’s the type of person you’d always want to be around.”
