Skip and I go back to the early 80s, times were so different when we were young. So many good times. Skip and Jody I will think of you often, never forget the whistle. RIP brothers.
Skip and I became best friends with a bond only best friends can have!! He had a big heart, a great sense of humour and an infectious laugh and smile. He was a very loving, caring, loyal friend. My partner Jill and I were fortunate to have enjoyed Skip’s company and we love him dearly. I could go on and on. Rest in piece, brother.
Rest in peace Skip. I grew up with skip and Jody both from a very early age in Fairview. My father and mother were friends with their parents. we have been friends for 50 years and had a lot of laughs and good times. was very close to Jody and Skip like brothers. will miss you Skip.
I’ve known Skip since he was a young boy. Always something special about him. Laughter came easy to him and Jody. Good men, gone too early.

Sad news... I’ll always remember the happy-go-lucky kid he was.
Skipper worked with us on service rig. One day he was spooling the sandline with a 2"x4" when it smacked him in the lips which left him with a distinctive scar. Ever since I branded him as Skipper Lips !! Enjoyed his company last time a few days after Jody's funeral in my boat in Sylvan Lake. We had a great day ! R.I.P. Skip... JP
