across the world. Touching lives every step he took, Steve could
see the good in everyone.
Inspired by the determination Steve exhibited in his life, Rhonda
and Randy vowed to carry his memory on and bring joy to the
lives of others. They created a charity in his honour. Family and
friends assisted in bringing the Stephen C. Parish, Jr. Memorial
Foundation to life. The charity would become the beginning
of Rhonda and Randy’s drive to continue Steve’s charitable
assistance to those in need. Proceeds collected from events
such as the Stephen C. Parish, Jr. Memorial Golf Outing would
be given to scholarship winners pursuing their education who
embody traits comparable to Steve.
Rhonda and Randy much like Steve, wouldn’t stop there. They
wanted to do something more. In March 2015, they began the
e-liquid company Captain Obvious E-juice. Captain Obvious, like
Steve’s ambition to save the world, would provide the highest
quality in flavour and ingredients to its customers. Steve’s Duck
would become the face of Captain Obvious.
As stores throughout the United States began to carry the
collection of premium e-juice, the memory of Steve began
to spread in a unique manner via the shelves of vape shops
throughout the vaping community. Rhonda and Randy
encouraged those who vape Captain Obvious E-juice to show
where they were tagging Steve via their photos on social media
platforms using hashtag #CaptainObviousEjuiceAdventures.
Now, Rhonda and Randy are both enjoying seeing the creativity
of the consumers and the ways in which they are sharing
Steve’s memory.
When you break down each element of Captain Obvious E-juice,
it completely embodies Steve. Names of juices including “The
Beach Bum One”, “The Breakfast One”, and “The Key Lime
One”, are sarcastic and funny, much like Steve’s charismatic
personality. Everything from the flavour descriptions, logo
mimicking a superhero and the ever popular capes... each part
of Captain Obvious E-juice is sharing Steve in a unique manner.
So while at first glance it may be a duck – it’s a duck that is here
to leave an impact and save the world. And it’s here to stay.
