Farewell my friend…
Life sucks sometimes…I really mean sucks! Last week the studio lost a dear friend, client, and our Santa for the past 12 years Brian Teachout. His life came to an end from a complication after a routine surgery. Brian touched hundreds of parents and kids lives being the ultimate Santa for us. Year after year I was honored to work with such a passionate man who took his role as Santa as serious as his day job, which was running his own landscaping business. Brian was also a devoted husband to Tammy and loving father to 3 awesome kids. Throughout this tragedy all of us at the studio have been focusing on the positive even though the pain is still at its worst. The joy and wonderment of the season will always be with us and our clients because of Brian and who he was. For many he was the true Santa and will always be remembered that way. Sometimes during all the hustle and bustle of this crazy time of year, all of us need to take a step back and focus on the important things in our lives. Farewell my friend and god speed. –Bruce Hudson PS.
