Skip was a good man and friend to us and our family. After all the years we served together on the Lake Geneva Spindustries Inc, board of directors, just the knowledge he is not around any more leaves a hole with us that will never be filled.

Our hearts and prayers go out to Skip's family. Skip and Carol were our mentors during our early years on the Walworth County Fair Board. His years of service to the Fair and community are truly outstanding accomplishments.

I will always remember Skip helping Greg and I with our houses. He was so kind and dear, he helped me convince Greg that I needed things in our kitchen! Greg truly had great respect for him. May he truly see the Glory of God!

Skip was such a sweet man always welcoming and kind, he will be missed I wish we could have visited more and heard more of his stories. A very intelligent interesting man who was very proud of his family. My sweet brother in law told many ways his dad gave to his community and what a blessing he was to so many. Or prayers are with you all
