Mrs Langbehn,

Just last March I walked Colorado Street and thought of my childhood friends. My thoughts of Skip were of bus rides to school and worries of making "weight" for the wrestling matches, his wonderful printing penmanship, and how bright he was. I am sad he is gone.



I am so sorry for your loss. I pray God comforts you at this time. Cathy

I'm sorry to hear of Skip's passing.

Even though it's been many years since I've seen my childhood friend. I've thought of him often. Skip Langbehn; Alex Kuchar and my self made up the neighborhood gang. We did everything together. Little League Baseball, Big Bear swimming and biking. You name it. We did it...

and Mrs. Langbehn...you were the greatest mom we could ever have. I will always think of your family fondly for letting me be a part of it.

God Bless you all

Love
