It wouldn't be fitting not to leave a word of love and comfort to skip's family since he brightened many days for me and others on Facebook so many times. I knew him there for many years. I never had to meet him personally to know he was a good man, a man of humor and friendship to all. He touched many lives, mine most of all. I know he loved Mark very much and his passing broke Skip's spirit. It tormented his soul and we talked about that. I know he knew Mark was beside him watching over him after Mark's passing. Now they are together again, in spirit and love; for that I am thrilled, knowing the love they had; for my selfishness, I'd want him to be here so we could chat some more. He was a special soul and I thank God that I was a part of his life. My condolences for his family and his friends. May God comfort and bring closure to you all. I am so sincerely sorry for Skip's passing. He left us shocked, stunned and heartbroken. RIP, my dear friend. Love, Wick Stevens 6/28/2015
