Mary,
We are so so sorry to hear of Skips passing. I remember one of the great times we had growing up. We travelled in his Volkswagen to Canada via N.Y. state. We camped by Lake Champlain for the night, but the mosquitos were so bad we had to leave & keep driving to Montreal. Paul was right. Those were fun times. He was a great pal.

Dear Mary and Family,
Skip grew up with us on Eddie St in Quincy. We had quite a gang, my brother Phil, Dicky Doyle, Johnny Gagnon and I have someplace lot's of photos. Quincy was not the city it is today, lots of open space for pick up ball games and trips to the "deep woods" beyond the end of our street, mostly to play "Army".
Later we got into cars, our first was a 1938 Chevy as I recall, Skip and I were the oldest so we did most of the work, like removing the old front shocks. Then we'd pile the whole gang in the back seat and make a run up Eddie street. No licences, no plates, no insurance. Just a bunch of kids having fun trying to make the front wheels come of the ground ! Our folks would find out occassionally and we'd catch hell, but it never stopped us.
Later we moved to real cars (still raced them) Skips 56 Chevy 6 cylinder was pretty quick, fooled many V8 drivers.
Then came girls and Mary hooked Skip............ no more cars, racing or fun (just kidding Mary !).
Skip was always a great guy, I'm sorry he's passed on, but you can be sure he's looking down and smiling at us.

I used to know Skip and Madeline Goeller when we went to Quincy schools around 1958. I still have a picture of Skip that Madeline gave to me because i had a crush on him. He was always a quiet man with curly, blonde hair. He was very shy too. It's a shame he has died unexpectedly he was still fairly young. Please accept my sincere regrets for the death of Skip Goeller.
