Donald James Parrish

West Point, 1965

Be Thou At Peace

Posted by James Webb on January 16, 2021:

My sympathy to the Parrish family.
I've always retained fond memories of Don, because, in the summer of 1961, we traveled together from Omaha to enter West Point . We had not met previously, but our fathers contacted each other and set this up. We spent a sleepless night in a room in the Thayer hotel, sharing anxieties and guesses as to what the next day would hold.
RIP
