The Altadena Election’s Facebook page posted a message Wednesday afternoon signed Dale Parks, who was one of three candidates for the seat at CT 4611.

The message reads:

Due to the recent death of my father and ensuing family matters I feel I will not be able to focus on my candidacy for the Altadena Council. I have decided to withdraw from the race because at his time I will not be able to contribute the time and energy the position deserves. I wish the other candidates the best of luck.
