My thoughts and prayers are with your family in this time of loss. I will always remember coming out to the house at 4 or 5 AM for a fishing trip and your Mr. Skelton would be up, he always had something witty to say and I always enjoyed this. He was sharp as a tack. Then when we'd come back from fishing all day, sometimes we only caught one big fish, He'd come out on the back porch and say "It took all three of you to catch that fish" He was a great man and I will miss him and those days! With Condolences, Steven "The Earl of Ellwood"
