Roger D. Ryder

Condolences to Skips family. I grew up in the same neighborhood a few blocks away from Skip. I also worked with him at Coastal Striping and briefly at Rampart. A funny memory I have of Skip was one summer day I was with some friends at King Park in Alma ( along Michigan Ave.) and here comes Skip on a snowmobile raising cane, tearing up the grass. He certainly was a character and most definitely hell on wheels. I like that in a person. Once again my symoathy and condolences.

to all the family of skip, my thoughts and prayers are with you at this time. he was a great person with an exceptional personality. he will be missed by everyone.

Jenna and family,
You are in our thoughts and prayers.

Skip you are and always will be in my top 5 people that I have the utmost respect for. You loved my sister Shawn well right to the end along with her children. You will be missed..nothing but love

My thoughts and prayers are with Skips loved ones! He had a contagions laugh and smile. Skip will be miss by many. He now has to be a streaker in heaven...just hope he doesn't run through any glass doors while he is there! R.I.P.

Our thoughts and prayers are with the Ryder family and Shawn, RIP Skip, you will be missed.

My prayers and sympathy are sent to all of you. Skip was always such a character. My husband Roger Bland and I worked with him many years with Rampart and Coastal Striping. He loved to tease me.I Won't ever forget the time we were on a runway, he didn't have a shirt on and he splashed me with paint so I grabbed a roller with paint and beads on it and painted his chest and beard and it stuck to all his body and then I run like Hell. He had to shave the beard off that night. We had a lot of fun...
