I have been close to Skippy and his family my entire life. He was always my "big brother" when we were together at our homes or away at school. He and I lived different lives, but we were always close together in our hearts. I could talk with Skip about anything and know that I would get an honest answer from him. I want people to know how much in high esteem I held Skip for his entire life. He was a good and honest soul and I know that I will have a chance to meet him again and tell him how much I loved him. Chum.
