My late father, John Doherty, was the accountant for A&C Paving for many years until his death in 1976. My deepest sympathies go out to your family. I remember your family well from my young childhood when the Arnolds were so kind to me. RIP Skip.

Skip may you rest in Peace! I remember watching you and Doug work on your TBird. Remember vising you at the shore and getting my car full of water in a rainstorm and dumping my wife in the bay.

Skip, you will always be missed by me and your grade school classmates. We had some great times as groups going to ballroom dance classes, and roller skating together in Paramus. Loved being together too at our Butler High class reunions where so many happy memories were shared. My sympathy now is extended to all of your family.

Skip: You will be so missed by your friends in Warwick and especially at the Crystal Inn. I was honored to have met you and to be called your friend for the past 10 years. You will now be able to soar through the skies on endless flights.
Cheers my friend! "Happy Landing" as you always have said!
