Not sure what to say?

Dear Shirley and family,

My deepest and sincere condolences at the loss of Skip. As you all know, I continue to deal with my own traggic loss. One of the things that I remembered from the memorial service for Dom was when the minister said; "It's only when it's the darkest that you can see the stars the brightest".

With much love,
Paul, Paul Jr., and Andrew

Rarely in one's lifetime are we priveledged to know a person of such character, charm and integrity as Skip Sanders.

H. Ross Perot once said that "Eagles don't flock, you have to find them one at a time" and Skip was one of the highest flying of eagles. He will be sorely missed and the world has lost a great friend.

Dearest Suzie, Roxie, Mrs. Sanders and family, I was so sorry to hear of Skip's passing. My memories of him are all larger than life. As a kid he reminded me of a cross between Rex Harrison and Foghorn Leghorn. I mean that with complete affection. I so appreciate his generousity in taking me on so many of your amazing vacations to the beach and to ski. I always felt like he treated me like one of his own daughters. You are all in my prayers.
