Left: Jaidyn Parkes with her father, Delroy âGeorgeâ Parkes, 61, who was killed in a shooting outside an Etobicoke high school June 2. Right: Seymour Gibbs, left, who also died in the shooting, with his son Seymour Jr. and daughter Abby.
It was the second night in a row that Delroy â George to everyone â Parkes was seated in the school parking lot across from his friends at the custom dominoes table they had made.
The space outside North Albion Collegiate Institute in their north Etobicoke community had, for many years, been their place of gathering â âHQâ, for headquarters, they called it.
The weather was good that first weekend of June and they had decided on Saturday night to return on Sunday to hang out and play again. There was âunfinished businessâ in their dominoes games, the man remembered, laughing. Parkes had handed his duo a couple of âsix-lovesâ he said, beating them handily. They wanted to âsquare it back up,â he said.
Parkes came to pick him up that Sunday and the man bought his friend a coffee.
After a game of soccer, they unfolded the dominoes table from the trunk. Parkes was seated with his regular partner and his other friend facing off against him. Just before 11 p.m., Parkes had them down 3-0 again. They were getting ready to start a new round.
Then the shooting started. The man remembers the rapid
fire sound, demonstrating for a reporter over the phone this week. It didnât even last 20 seconds, he said. He didnât realize at first the shots were aimed at them.
