To all the family, so sorry for your loss. AL & LOU were well liked. I haven't seen any of the family since he retired from the Pennsauken store. He did a repair on my gold chain that was given to me as a gift from my husband in the 70's. Such a kind family. Sadly missed,

Hey old friend since Kindergarten, my thoughts and prayer for you & your family. Tremendous loss!!! Mr. Lou Skulnick was definitely a "power house". I liked him very much; there was no shy bone in his body. He truly was a man to admire & I understand why he would be your hero! Love you guys, Ronnie, Psalm 90
