Skeeter worked at Thilmany for 42 years and was able to enjoy 16 years of retirement He was well known for his sense of humor. When he could no longer get in and out of a boat, he gave up fishing, something he and his brothers enjoyed doing at the family cottage on Lake Poygan. He spent many vacations with his family at cottages and lakes up north.

In addition to his parents, he is preceded in death by his brother, Dr. Rev. Michael (Rogene) Rogers.
Per Skeeter's wishes, there will be no funeral services held. He enjoyed socializing along with music and a few beers, and would like for family and friends to do the same and have one (or two) in honor and remembrance of him. To sign the guestbook, please visit oconnellfh.com.
