Skibo was a great man and was always happy, full of stories and ready for the hunt! He will be sorely missed, however his joyful spirit will forever live on. So glad to have been a part of your life and you in mine. Rest In Peace my friend! God Bless you and your family!

I hunted with Skibo at his uncle’s place off Nestor Rd. in Chesterfield and enjoyed his company and talking about stock car racing. He came up to Cumberland, Va. when I joined Hill Top Hunt Club and hunted a couple of times. He was a good man and will be missed.
