(Pittsford, NY) Reknown artist Philip Burke was at Oak Hill Country Club Wednesday night to paint the likeness of longtime Oak Hill pro and News 8 golf analyst Craig Harmon on one of the Golf Balls on Parade.  

Sponsored by Friendly Senior Living, Burke painted the golf ball at Oak Hill Country Club during the 95th
 PGA Championship's Taste of the PGA Championship event. On the front of the Friendly Senior Living golf ball will be a rendition of Craig Harmon, the back of the golf ball will be reserved for design by Friendly Senior Living residents, which gives them the opportunity to get involved in this community-wide initiative and showcase the five communities under the Friendly Senior Living umbrella: Cloverwood, Glenmere, Linden Knoll, Lovejoy Transitional Care Center and The Friendly Home.
 
Friendly Senior Living selected the Craig Harmon golf ball as it is committed to the Rochester community and participating in Golf Balls on Parade is a way that it honors this commitment and shares in it with its residents. The Craig Harmon Golf Ball will be auctioned off at the Friendly Home's gala, Flapper Folly in June.
