Today we honor and remember Billy Parker, the man whose vision and passion gave Wagoner one of its most beloved traditions—the Lucky 13 Fishing Tournament.
Billy didn’t just start a tournament; he built a legacy rooted in community, friendship, and a shared love for the water. What began as an idea became an annual event that brought families, anglers, and neighbors together year after year, creating memories that will last a lifetime. His dedication, generosity, and commitment to Wagoner were evident in everything he did.
Billy’s impact will continue to ripple through this community every time a line is cast, a story is shared, and the Lucky 13 lives on. His legacy is one of joy, togetherness, and tradition—and it will never be forgotten.
Our thoughts and prayers are with his family, friends, and all who were fortunate enough to know him. Rest easy, Billy. Thank you for giving Wagoner something truly special. 🎣💙
