To Skip's family, and all those who love her,
I just wanted to say to you that it was my honor to care for, and about, Skip while she was at the Greenfields. Skip will ALWAYS hold a dear place in my heart. Her fire and wit are something I always will carry with me. In many of of our "chats", while caring for her, I realized that "just 'cause there's snow on the roof, doesnt mean there ain't fire in the stove", as she would say to me with that beautiful smile and a wink. Her strength and courage are something we all could take a lesson from. I Love You Skip. God has called home his best. May you rest in God's unfathomable love and peace. I will miss you, Skipper-doo. Tell Mom I said Hi. Thank you for the " chats". I will never forget you.

I was saddened and shocked to hear about Skip! Her late husband and mine worked together many years at Cornell Aeronautical and Skip and I lost our husbands the same year and we did a lot of eating out, and going for drives together. I will certainly miss her!
