Skipper and I were best friends in high school; but, we lost tract of each other after he left for Ole Miss.  I remeber a lot of good times he and I had together in his covertable.  He will be missed by everyone who knew him.  My fondest memory was when I went to Memphis with skip and his family to see the Memphis State and VMI game.  Howard Dyer was the QB for VMI.

 I can't tell you all the good times that Skipper and I had together, He was one of my closest friends.  Kenneth Banks, David Barnes, Frankie Williamson, Sam Summerhill, Robert Criswell, and Johnny Lane. These are the ones I can remember, we all shared our lives together growing up in high school.  I was the mechanic of the bunch, and I can remember Skipper and I overhauling his old white 1949 chevy 6 cylinder in Clevland, MS.  He will be missed.
