My wife and I got to meet skip for just a brief period when he stayed in Minnesota with my brother David and Monique. He was a friendly guy and I’m glad he found good friends in the church when he left MN. Our thoughts and prayers are with the rest of his family and church family as well.

Jim and I spent time with Skip when he lived with David & Monique. We had picnics at our house and he helped us take the dock out in the fall. We remember that Skip was Tater the cats favorite person. We all loved Skip and missed him when he left. His sister, Monique, felt bad when he left, but realized that Skip would be happiest in his familiar surroundings.

Our sorrow goes deeper than anyone can imagine. His family on his Mother’s side lost touch with Skip and didn’t know where he was until recently. He has two aunts Emma King and Frankie Tobler plus many cousins who have been very worried and concerned about him. We love you very much Skip and know that you are with your Mom now. Love you Emma

>oops, I shouldn’t have lkoeod. Brought back very strong memories for me. You did a BEAUTIFUL job of capturing the whole experience and of the sweet baby. (we only have a few Polaroids and some portrait type of him) I can’t wait to be able to be with our sweet Steven Douglas. I know families are forever and that knowledge gets me through the feelings of sadness in not being able to raise our son on earth.
