Dear Skidmores,
I am sorry to hear of David's passing.I have fond memories of being introduced to flora and fauna when tagging along on a Skidmore nature outing following Sunday school at Armstrong. I so enjoyed seeing both Dave and Suzanne when I was in Cincinnati a few years ago and dropped in at their home impromptu. His warm and genuine smile stays with me today. My sympathies to all of you. Fondly, Sarah Condit Rawley
