Read MoreI only knew Skippy through his son, Peter, who loved his father so much. Peter told me many a tale that always made me smile. He's probably already flirting with the ladies and sneaking silverware into their purses in heaven. God bless you Skip!

John "Skippy" was a great friend to all. He was a true gentleman who was extremely proud to be an American and a hard working Elk.
He loved to "cause a little trouble" and his harmless pranks are known in the Elks throughout the Lodges in State of NJ (and Staten Island!).
Skippy's kindness and caring was especially evident with the special needs population!
We will think of him fondly and miss him forever!
