Those who knew Judge Randy Parro remember him as a meticulous jurist who cared deeply about his family and the Thibodaux community he called home.
Parro, a native and resident of the city who served 32 years as a judge, died July 11 at age 78.
His service on the bench began in 1982 as a state district judge for Lafourche Parish, a seat he held 11 years. In 1993, he was elected to the 1st Circuit Court of Appeal in Baton Rouge, serving until his retirement in December 2014.
Vanessa Guidry-Whipple of Houma, chief judge of the same appeals court, views Parro as a beloved friend and colleague. She said while he always worked hard, he never forgot how to have fun.
