Skeeter was a part of my life for over 45 years; a good and gentle soul who never failed to bring a laugh into my day; always had a project for me; always had a story to tell...always with a UC in hand. We will ride again, Dear Friend! Hasta Manana and Vaya Con Dios!! My heartfelt thoughts & sympathy go out to Arlene who was always there...

What an individual Skeeter was. He had been everywhere, done everything, and knew everybody. A great storyteller whose life would make a terrific book. He will be missed from coast to coast.
