Publish in a newspaper
OBITUARY:
David Joseph Skolsky died surrounded in love by his family in Atlanta.
A native New Yorker, he grew up in the Bronx, attended Alfred University, and then served in the Army Reserves at Fort Dix as Lieutenant Colonel. He married Gail in 1964 and they created a home in New City where he was active in the community and sat on the board of the chamber of commerce. He is survived by Gail (Sandlofer), his girlfriend Claire Holtsford, his 3 daughters: Lauren (Laurie Foster), Robin (Mesha Rebac) and Randi (Billy Steuer) as well as his 4 granddaughters Brooke, Marley, Lindsay, and Jamie - his shining stars.
An eclectic assemblage artist and an avid golfer, he combined his love of golf and sports into his artwork.
He will be greatly missed.
Donations in his memory can be made to The Powerful Project (www.powerfulproject.org) or The Parkinson's Foundation.
