PHOENIX — Even after Carlos Parra’s passing, his beautiful voice continues to bring people together.

The songs he played to serenade tens of thousands of people now reflect a life lost too soon.

Just makes my heart hurt. One of his supporters said, “I was a really big fan,” to 12News on Wednesday evening at a public viewing where the casket containing his body was positioned in the middle and was decorated with flowers.

The 12 News posted a Tweet that Valley band Carlos Parra the lead singer was killed in a car crash.

Before Parra’s burial services on Thursday, his friends, family, and admirers came to pay tribute to his memory.

The 26-year-old’s band, “Los Parras,” which he and his two brothers founded in their teens, included him as the lead vocalist.

Parra was slain on Saturday while traveling to his hometown of Los Mochis, Sinaloa, Mexico, with his family to celebrate the birthday of Parra’s eldest brother.

The automobile hit a pothole while he was in the backseat, losing a tire and rolling over numerous times. Parra was thrown out and passed away immediately.

“It’s a tragedy to see a young kid with such big dreams get cut short,” said Cesar Sanchez. “There are no words to describe this. It’s unfortunate.”

According to Sanchez, Parra’s math teacher in junior high was him. He recalled being a little child who enjoyed singing and listening to music.

“I remember him doing a talent show at our junior high and he would always tell me, ‘Mr. Sanchez, you know what, one day, one day, I’ll make it big,” he said.
