Guest book for Skip online at the Jacksonville Union Times includes the following:

"What a loss to all that knew him. I feel part of my soul has been ripped out. I knew Skip for 25 years. Through thick and thin. No matter what Skip was there to help. Whether it was in moral support, laughter, or just being there. He was an angel sent from a higher being to help make people happy and feel wanted. Not a second goes by that I do not think of him. I miss him calling me with his laughter and I miss him saying "it is hard to be me." I love you skip. You left way too soon. I will be talking to you everyday in your new life."
Love forever, Feye Hudson

"We worked together for nearly ten years at the Family Care Center. It was a wonderful experience for I do not believe that I ever saw Skip "down" except maybe when Tiger won a tournament. Thanks Skip for the good times."
