You were the man that took me in and loved me for me, u are my papa. I miss you so unconditionally and i wish you could still be with me teaching me all that you know and giving me more to complain about. I miss the mornings when we would all sit and talk about anything and everything as a family and the great stories you would have. I love you papa and you will always be in my heart. <3

Dearest Skip, I am so blessed to have known you the past five years. Your stories and cheesy jokes always put a smile on my face. You joked around so often, it was difficult to tell when you were being serious =) Your presence at Mac's Glass will be greatly missed. I wish I had known that my last visit would have been our last encounter because I would have told you bye and how sweet you were to me. God bless you, your friends, and family.
