Not sure what to say?

Shannon, Ben and family, We are so sorry to hear about your dad. Susan and I send our prayers and condolences.

Memory of my mentor and friend and his family. Can´t express how much all of you mean to me. Comfort in our loss

We are so very sorry for your loss. Skip was an amazing man and will truly be missed. Love y'all!

I treasure the time that I spent working for Skip and Ben at Mason & Mason. Skip was a true southern gentleman. He was focused and patient and an excellent mentor. I have many fond memories of office social events outside work hours and even seeing Skip years ago at swim meets. I have always admired him and his loving family. My prayers are with all of you.

I only met Shannon when he spoke at you mother's graveside service(Lucy Fanshaw). I remember well your parents Lucy and Benny Fanshaw as they were friends with my parents Eddie and Mary Baum at first Presbyterian Church. I was sorry to hear of his death and will keep you and your family in my prayers. They often came over to visit them on on Carlisle Way in Norfolk.

So sorry to hear about your loss. You know that God and Jesus are in the best position to comfort us when we lose a loved one in death.

Dear Mary Lou, Shannon, Ben and Paige, Skip was such an influence in my life as my boss and mentor in my first job as a legal secretary. He was brilliant and loved to tell jokes and funny stories, but also a strict taskmaster and no nonsense when it came to work responsibilities. You were all like family to me. I am so very saddened by your loss. He will be missed by everyone who had the privilege of knowing him. With love and affection and deepest sympathies to you, Ruth Ann

Ben and Kelli, I am so sorry. I will keep you in my thoughts and close in my heart. Love you.

My deepest sympathy to Skips' family and many friends who are grieving his death...I too am in grief. I looked up to him as a civic hero and was proud of my association with him many years ago through the ODU Alumni Association. May he be long remembered for his gentlemanly ways and his kindness to all. and may he rest in eternal peace.
