Farewell to a friend

I found out yesterday that I’d lost a friend.  He was a cameraman and editor who worked for a company I once co-owned.  His name was Scott Parrish.  When our little company was growing and the work was becoming more than what my partner Mickey and I could do, we hired Scott.  It was a great decision.
He was a funny guy who was talented and loved what he did.  Mickey, Scott and I, often times sat around after shoots of the golf show I hosted at the time, Par for the Course and drank beer, talked sports and told jokes.  We had a lot of fun together in those years.
I’d heard he’d been sick the past couple of years, but I was off doing other things and we hadn’t crossed paths much.  I’m sorry I didn’t take the time to look in on him.  He was a quiet soul who was easy to be around and I considered him a friend.  He will be missed.
