Thomas R. Skulina

Tom and I were classmates and friends at both St. Ignatius and John Carroll. He was a trustworthy friend, had a great sense of humor and was intelligent and thoughtful.
Since I went off to the Patna Mission in 1961 and only returned to the States in September 2001 I did not see Tom for many years. What a wonderful surprise when at a Cachat family function I met him at Lakewood Country Club. He was a same Tom, easy to approach, thought and with the same sense of humor.

Tom was a great attorney and arbitrator. I served on many NASD & Finra arbitration panels with Tom. He was very intelligent, trustworthy, and always treated all parties with respect. Tom was also a great person. We were also both St. Ignatius graduates, and Tom was proud of our school.

Sending a note from Bob Hill and family. Tom and my dad were friends for many years and law partners as well. Thoughts and prayers to his family and friends.

I served with Tom many years ago on the Cleveland Bar Association's Certified Grievance Committee. He was a great lawyer and great guy. My deepest condolences to all of those who were close to him. Sincerely, Vince
