Mrs. Skinner will be sorely missed. My husband Ethan and I were students at Fairview and lovingly remember how well Mrs. Skinner took care of all of us. The relationship had continued because my mom, Jeanette Ferdman, regularly played bridge with Marge. I will always remember and admire her strength and independence. I marveled at the stories she told about her travels and of course, her beloved Notre Dame. We all miss her.

My Wife and children express our deepest sympathy to the family of Mrs. Skinner. We had the pleasure of having lived in the same apartment building as Mrs. Skinner for 13 years. She was a lovely neighbor and person. We know that God will embrace her in his kingdom and she will be re-united with Walter.
