Unhappy Important: Passing of Soror Marjorie H. Parker, 15th Supreme Basileus

It is with great sadness and sorrow that I inform everyone that Soror Marjorie H. Parker passed away. More details to come on exactly when she passed. She was our Sorority's Great Historian and 15th Supreme Basileus (1958-1962). She will definitely be missed.

Thank you for this information, soror. I saw a clip of Soror Parker during a video presentation at our Founders' Day celebration in Jackson this weekend. She will be missed, indeed.

For real. Furthermore, her contributions as part of American (and African-American) history will be remembered.

This is truly a sad occasion. Her contributions to Alpha Kappa Alpha & America are too many to mention. 'May her soul & all the souls of the faithfully departed rest in peace'.
