Parker Allen Christiansen came into this world “Fast and Furious”, being born 18 minutes after his loving parents, Mark Christiansen and Neva (Zajac) Christiansen arrived at St. Vincent Hospital on Sunday, August 1, 1993.

It is with great sorrow and struggle that we, Parker’s parents, Mark and Andrea Christiansen and Neva and Steve Paque, share that we have lost our dear, beloved, entertaining son.

Parker was tragically killed Sunday, August 30, 2026, in Gillett, in a rollover accident with his 1949 Oliver 77 Row Crop Tractor (gifted to him by his grandfather Jim Zajac and great-great uncle Ted Krajewski) leaving the Oconto County Fair and Car & Tractor show. He was proud to take the tractor to parades and church picnics, keeping up tradition - especially the Pulaski Polka Days parade.

Parker graduated from Pulaski High School in 2011 and enjoyed wrestling and playing football in his freshman year. During his sophomore year, Fuzzy chose to forego sports since he was accepted into the welding apprenticeship program that would continue through graduation and beyond. His welding career spanned many years working at various companies throughout Northeast Wisconsin. He was currently working at Peters Concrete in the shop welding on heavy equipment where he developed many friendships over the last several years. A few years ago, Parker also started his own business from his home shop, Fineline Customs, where he offered a variety of welding services.

Parker loved anything with an engine or motor, ranging from 4-wheelers, motorcycles, trucks, snowmobiles, dirt bikes, if it needed oil, he wanted to see it. He was always working on multiple projects in his well-equipped shop in a quiet neighborhood near Gillett. He worked hard and played hard. Always had cold beer for the many drop-in visitors, friends and family.

Parker adored his grandparents, Wally and Marilyn Christiansen, and Jim and Helen Zajac. They spoiled him with love and always enjoyed his visits. Parker spent many years helping out in the Christiansen family Sugar Shack – Maple Mafia in the Town of Chase during maple syrup season… long days and nights but well worth it.

Parker was blessed to have many friends and relatives who appreciated his humor and light-heartedness. He could be a bit spunky at times as well. Parker had a huge personality and loved to be social, he could start up a conversation with anyone, anywhere, anytime. He was a smiling guy who loved to laugh and tease and make others comfortable in any situation. He was always willing to lend a hand to those in need.

He loved many genres of music, including Country, Classic Rock, and Polkas. Too many of his favorite artists to name. His stereo was always blaring in the shop while he worked in the quiet countryside.

Over the years, Parker’s hobby farm included: Goats, chickens, ducks, cats, his precious cattle and his dogs, Clyde and Zeus. He loved working in the fields and would help out seasonally with WCS (Waste Control Service, Inc.)… a time he truly enjoyed.

Parker was a proud member of the Badgerland Oliver Collectors, State Chapter of Hart-Parr Oliver. He shared his love for Oliver tractors with David, Carol, Derrick and Tanya Dittman of Green Valley.

Parker, our son, brother, uncle, nephew, cousin, neighbor, mentor and grandson is survived by: his parents, Mark and Andrea Christiansen and Neva and Steve Paque; sisters and brothers-in-law, Ashley and Andy Koski and their daughter, Layla, and Marisa and Michael Leidig and their children, Meadow and Miles; his step-grandparents: Dewey Baker, Sandy Pettey, and Donald Paque; stepsister, Stevie Paque; stepbrother, Dusty Paque; godparents, Kathy Fischer and Terry Zajac; and many aunts, uncles, cousins, other family and friends.

He was preceded in death by his favorite friend and cousin, Josh Fischer; paternal grandparents, Wally and Marilyn Christiansen; and his maternal grandparents, Jim and Helen Zajac.

Friends are invited to Marnocha Funeral Home, 186 E. Pulaski St., Pulaski, on Thursday, September 3, from 3-7 p.m. There will be a time for memory sharing at 6:30 p.m. Burial will take place at a later date in St. Joseph Cemetery, Chase.
