It’s always sad to tell you about another loss in our Bearcat Family. Rob was much younger than I. We think he graduated FHS in 82. I graduated the year he was born. The Parish family lived near several of us growing up on the Hill. I knew his parents and his older siblings. My condolences go out to his family and friends. I think this is the order…. Ray, Caroline (deceased), Kent, Roger, Pat and Rob. Please correct if I have the years wrong.
I well remember the Parish’s living on the corner of Pace St and Cain St. I can remember the older children but not the younger ones. Prayers to the family.
Condolences to the remaining family members. I remember when they lived near the elementary school. Ray was in class of 65, Carolyn was in class of 67 and Kent was in my sister's class in 68. The younger kids were of another era.
