Parrish was a extraordinary child. He was dutiful, obedient
and a scholar. He graduated at the top of his high school class.
He cleaned his parents offices in the evenings and helped his father
with the honey bees. At the University of Florida, he continued
the same tradition.
Parrish was accepted by the University of Florida Medical College, but
went to the University of South Florida Medical College with his
sweetheart, Michelle. After graduation and marriage, both
Parrish and Michelle went to Nashville, TN, for post-graduate
work in pediatrics.
Following training, Parrish was an administrator with the
Veterans' hospital in Tampa, Florida and an assistant professor
at the University of Central Florida. He is now in the process of
opening his own sole practice in pediatrics.
Michelle is the pride of her family. Beautiful, she has a
great personality and is very friendly. She is dedicated to her
profession and to her children. She is in private practice as
pediatrician in St. Petersburg, FL. Michelle's grandmother
resides with them and has been an inspiration to the grandchildren.
Parrish and Michelle's children are:
1. Emily Sue (15-Aug-1994) and
2. Steven Jr. (11-Jun-1996).
