Ernest W. Parmenter, 77, passed away on May 8, 2020, following a long period of declining health related to diabetes and heart disease. A native of Massachusetts, Ernie and his wife lived in Alexandria, New Hampshire for 30 years before retiring to Sun City Center, Florida in 2015.
Ernie switched careers from management at several high tech companies in Massachusetts to law enforcement in New Hampshire when he moved to Alexandria. He served as Captain and Chief of the Alexandria Police Department and also served as Town Selectman.
Upon retirement he became a member of the Sun City Center New England Club and Travel Club, and the Kings Point Sportsman's Club. He enjoyed many SCC events throughout the year with the special friends he made in Sun City Center as well as weekly Friday lunches and informal and celebratory gatherings with them.
He will be sadly missed by Pat, his wife of nearly 40 years, and his sons Steven and Michael Parmenter, both of Florida. He is also survived by three grandchildren, a niece and nephew, and his sister Sandra McManaway.
There will be no calling hours. A memorial get-together will be held at a later date.
Memorial contributions in lieu of flowers can be made to LifePath Hospice, chaptershealth.org, whose staff served Ernie so well, enabling him to stay at home with his wife at the end of his life.
