Not sure what to say?

Sorry to see you go Bobby .Wish I had come down to the barber shop to visit a little bit sooner

Knew Skip for years way back in the 60's when the car used to patrol southie advertizing sign on roof and blaring loudspeaker SKIPS SMART SERVICE talked for hours about his white toyota I moved away but still tried to stay in touch Have not been able to get to southie for a while just found out VERY SADLY MISSED

I am sorry to be adding this comment so late, but I just recently found out about Skip's passing. I have gone to him with some regularity for many years to get my hair cut. He was always a gentlemen, funny, welcoming and great to spend time with. I work at the Harpoon Brewery and several of us ending up "going to see Skip" over the years. We miss him and wish his family well. Cheers, Dan Kenary

Skip gave me my first hair cut as a child and then my own son years later . I will miss Skips stories about the card man , He is the best part of South Boston and will be sorely missed . God speed Skip

We were saddened to hear of Skip's passing.
Always tried to say stop by and say hi on my way to open our shop. Enjoyed all the pictures on the wall and the stories he would tell me. Another one of few old school Southie stores, not many of us left Skip. Rest in Peace

To the Scaro family, my name is Joe Reardon and I live on Dorchester Street. I have been going to the shop for years and I just found out today that my friend Skip passed away. I am very sorry for your loss. We hit it off when we first met talking about baseball and life. I lost my Dad earlier this year and Skip was there for me even though he was not feeling well. He often talked about my Dad's baseball career and now he and Skip can talk all the baseball they want. They are both playing for...

Sorry for you loss. Skip was a valued member of his beloved Southie and very proud of his family. A trip to the shop was a trip back to the old days with stories to match.
