Not sure what to say?

Daddy is with you now, and so is my brother, David, I know you all are singing the songs, and playing music, and God is with you. Send me an angel, I am so sad. Peace be with your family. You were always so kind to Daddy and I.

Still grateful for his making the historical marker at Restlawn Cemetery possible. So proud of the advancements it has made under Sandy's direction and now with Mr. Rivera. Thanks to all.

He was a special friend, witty and cordial, and a joy to be around. We played a lot of golf together. After many road trips to different golf courses, he especially enjoyed Rancho Viejo because of its proximity to Mexico, where we enjoyed dinner and drinks after our round. He witnessed my hole-in-one on hole 8 at Ebony Hills

I will plant something in memory of Mr. Skinner to beautify Restlawn Cemetery. He was an important contributor there as well as his sister Sandy.

I'm still missing my old steel guitar buddy...

Gone but not forgotten! RIP

Ward was a spirited friend to many and missed by all .

I learned to know Ward during my YFU exchange student year 1969 - 70 in Pharr, Texas, living with the Price Thrall family. Ward Skinner and James Thrall were my family brothers and closest friends, not to forget Joe Hernandez and all other PSJA Srs 70 graduates.
This was a sad surprise, Ward, God bless your soul up there!
Your friend Juha, forever

I graduated from Commonwealth with Ward and had not heard about this until reading a notice in the NFDA Director magazine. My sympathy to you. Wish I knew more about Ward between 1975 and now but he sure sounds like a good man.
