Not sure what to say?

Skip and I worked together for IBM (West Palm Beach office porting ViaVoice to Mac. Skip was a pleasure to work with and a nice person. I only worked with him a short time but enjoyed his way of making droll programming fun. He is missed.

Almost 9 years ago I received the horrific news that you had passed. It took a while to sink in! We had just beat stomach cancer! Your commitment and discipline to do everything in your control to recover as much as possible were rewarded! I was beyond happy when you told me you were in remission. Whod of thought a couple days later youd get hit while riding your 1200 pound bright white horse that stood 8 feet tall. I miss you all the time! You were so pleasant and enjoyable to work with! You...

Skip, you were a great friend of many years. We first met at a Coldplay concert back in 2005. The most memorable time we spent together was the day the iPhone launched... he called me up to say "Someone has canceled on me, so do you want to go to the iPhone launch party tonight?"

Hey Skippy. I miss your smiling face every morning at work...seeing you come through smelling of horses and telling jubilent stories about your farm life...I miss you so very much. i send you hugs in heaven...<3

I had not spoken to Skip for some time and found out about this tragedy when recently thinking of how he might be doing. The world has lost a great person. My condolences go out to his family and friends. Rest in peace.

I also just found out about this tragedy. My thoughts, prayers and condolences to you Able, your family and friends.

I just found out about this today. I knew Skip had cancer and thought that was the reason for his passing, up until I read his tragic death.

I only knew Skip for a brief period of time, but he was such an awesome person to be around. He had great energy and was so very friendly. His farm had such beautiful horses.

My deepest condolences go out to his family and friends.

Rest in Peace, Skip. I will miss you dearly.

I just found out and am in shock. Skip was brilliant. We went to school together in Riyadh. I'm so sorry for your loss Abel
