What a wonderful obituary! He was all of the things you say about him. Way back his Dad and mine used to always sit together at Malvern sporting events. Skip was usually the manager of the team. And while he didnt play we knew he was as tough as nails and would always stand with and behind our guys no matter the challenge. One of Malverns finest. I will miss his smile and good natured demeanor. God bless you brother
