I am so very saddened by this news. Neither Ellen nor I ever met Skip,
but we wrote an article for VPP (on restaurants!) and considered ourselves
'Friends of Skip.' Skip's sense of humor was wonderful - and I learned much
of what I know about VP from Skip and/or work that was somehow related to
the SHG. I wish I knew he had moved to Carson City, as we've both spent
considerable time up there in the last couple of years. To say Skip will be
sorely missed is a great understatement. Farewell my friend - rest in peace.
