We never had the pleasure of meeting Mr. Skupien, but heard some wonderful stories about him from his daughter, Aileen and husband Jerry.
We hope we will be as determined as he to maintain an active life and fight letting ourselves age prematurely.

I would like to send my condolences out to the Skupien family. I still can remember when Ken's dad would take us to school in I think was a Buick on the cold winter months. Rest In Peace Mr. Skupien and thanks for the rides.
