Mr. Parish
From Tolkien Gateway
Mr. Parish is a character in Leaf by Niggle. He is the neighbour of Niggle, and husband to Mrs. Parish. Parish is an old man, who asks his neigbour to do several chores for him. Since Niggle is a nice fellow, he agrees, though he prefers to work on his painting. Parish never understood his art.
