C. Alan Parbury ’70 was born on Aug. 13, 1947, in San Jose, the only child of the late Charles Byron and Ethel Noakes Parbury. He attended Bellarmine College Preparatory and graduated with a B.S. from SCU. After graduation, he pursued careers in the financial and real estate investments markets in addition to sales. Sports were his passion, with baseball and golf being his favorites. After a hand injury ended his pitching career, he turned to golf. He won local championships and became a scratch handicap player.

He was a NCGA rules official for local tournaments and volunteered on committees for the PGA and LPGA. In 1992, he received an appreciation certificate from the U.S. Open Championship for his dedication and volunteerism.

Buxkemper, daughter Cynthia Parbury, stepdaughter Jamey Moore, wife Carole, and their son, Rowan.
