In Loving Memory of Owen Parker 🕊️ It is with profound sadness that we remember Owen Parker, a beloved founder and operations manager at ADAS Solutions LLC. Owen was a dedicated advocate for the safe and accurate repair of vehicles involved in collisions, specializing in safety system calibrations for late-model cars. His work was instrumental in ensuring that body shops could confidently navigate the ever-evolving automotive landscape. Owen’s journey began in a small auto repair shop while he pursued a Toyota/Lexus T-TEN technical program in South Florida. His passion and dedication led him to become a certified ASE Master Technician ahead of schedule, marking the start of a remarkable career. Over the years, Owen worked with Honda and various other dealerships and repair shops, mastering engine rebuilds, hybrid repairs, and complex electrical diagnostics. In 2018, Owen’s path took a turn due to a car accident, leading him to a remote diagnostic company where he encountered ADAS systems for the first time. This new challenge ignited his passion for this emerging field, and he quickly became an expert in calibrations—an area that many shops struggled with. Driven by his vision to provide comprehensive calibration services, Owen founded ADAS Solutions LLC, filling a crucial gap in the industry. His commitment to excellence and his drive to continually advance his knowledge were truly inspiring. Owen’s legacy lives on through his contributions to automotive safety and his unwavering dedication to his craft. He will be deeply missed by all who had the privilege of working with him and learning from his expertise. Rest in peace, Owen Parker. Your impact on the industry and the lives you touched will not be forgotten. 🕯️🌟🚗 #InMemory #OwenParker #ADAS #AutomotiveLegacy #RestInPeace
