On behalf of the Janowiecki family, I extend our sincere condolences to the Skees family. We also lived in Westbrook Village and I remember all the Janowiecki and Skees kids running around the neighborhood together. My parents, Richard and Mary Ann would also get together monthly with Hugh and Jasmine and other neighbors for dinner. It's great that our two families became friends way back in 1970! May God bless you and know that you all are in our thoughts and prayers.

We are so sorry to hear of Hugh’s passing. Hugh was a great neighbor! We loved him and Jasmine. Hugh will be missed by all. The family has our deepest sympathy and prayers.

Your Dad was truly a great man. So wise, spiritual and kind-hearted. I have so many fond childhood memories of him! And count myself as truly blessed to have known him for most of my life.❤ Beyond his many accomplishments, his children (and grandchildren) are the greatest legacy he has bestowed upon us. God bless you all as you mourn his passing and live on his great example.❤❤
