Michael Skebe Obituary

Michael Jude Skebe, 66, beloved father, brother and friend, passed away in December 2024, leaving behind a legacy of love, laughter and adventure. Born in Ohio, Michael lived in Connecticut and California before moving to Colorado in 1993, where he and his wife Cheryl Flury had sons Luke and Logan Skebe. Michael proudly supported Luke and Logan's endeavors, including Luke's graduation from CU Boulder and Logan's pursuit of his BS at Metro State.
A passionate sports fan, Michael was a devoted Broncos supporter and among the first to hold Avalanche season tickets. He loved skiing, hiking, and spending time at his second home in Breckenridge. With an unmatched ability to bring joy to those around him, Michael's quick wit, infectious laughter and talent for storytelling made every moment fun. He lived life to the fullest, always seeking adventure and connection.
He will be deeply missed by ex-wife Cheryl; sons Luke and Logan; sister Kathy and her family; and countless friends and loved ones. For local friends and family members, a memorial service will be held at St. Joan of Arc Catholic Church in Arvada March 20, 2025 at 10:30 AM. In honor of Michael, the family encourages friends to share a favorite memory, tell a funny story or raise a glass in his honor. Donations may be made at heart.org.
