Skip - a kid from the "S" homeroom at West High. I was very glad to have seen him again at last year's class reunion. Rest well.

It is always hard to hear about a classmate dying but at least you know Skip went to heaven and that is a good thing. We will be praying for the family.

Dear Pam:
Our hearts break for you and we grieve with you, but not for Skip. He had made peace with his Maker and is basking in His Glory while he reuites with family and friends.

We will all miss him as he has left a huge imprint on our heart
and on our family...there was only one "Uncle Pick" who would hide Easter eggs all day long to amuse his adoring neices, but there is also only one Aunt Pam who made his life so much better. You were the best thing that ever happened to him Thank you for being there for him and loving him like you do
you definitely made the difference in his world. He loved you so much, and that is not hear-say he has told me that in person.

Remember that always...love does not die it lives in your heart forever.

We love you and appreciate you more than you will ever know.
