Don & Vicky,
I'm sorry about your loss. My prayers go out to you all.

To all Skips family, I want to tell you how bad I feel. Words don't really say it. I met Skip 9 years ago and we became close friends. We camped beside each other for 8 years. I feel I know each of his children, Grandchildren and parents. I heard every new thing that happen in your lives. He was so proud of you all. Skip was like a brother and will be missed. His smile and his heart of gold was so special. I guess the good Lord just wanted him home for some reason. So untill we meet again...

dear derek: I'm very sorry to here about the loss.Take care and be strong.

To Skip's family and loved ones; he was loved by many and forever had a smile to share with all! His compassion for other's was always felt and his ability to place other's before himself was a true testimony to his character. This world was a better place because of his presence and as he rest in peace may all of you continue to feel his presence in your memories and heart. Deepest Sympathy.

My deepest sympathy on the loss of your father. Our thoughts and prayers are with you all. He will be missed by many.
God Bless

To the Fanska family
My thoughts and prayers are with you. Skip was one of those people who took you in and treated you as one of his own. I was fortunate enough to be his neighbor, his friend, and one of his own he would take in when needed. I love that man. He will be deeply missed by myself and by many.
Ride on Skip- We love you

To the Fanska family:
Please know that our prayers are with you at this loss of Skip. He was such a good neighbor to us when we lived up on Cranston St.
He used to get up in the morning early to walk my 2 miles every day with me. Gave Anna rides whenever he saw her walking to work. Came over just to visit and chat. He will be missed by so many.
