Wilbur Manly Skidmore

West Point, 1956

Be Thou At Peace

Posted by Rev. Scott M. Stevenson on November 1, 2006:

Mrs. Skidmore showed great hospitality to me while I was Bill's classmate at N. Springfield Elem. What a great family. What a great father and grandfather. Col. Skidmore was a soldier's soldier and I am so proud and honored to have known his wonderful family that helped me so much while my dad was in Viet-Nam. I will pray for his wonderful family and friends daily. Blessings-In the clutches of the cross. Col. Skidmore told me ten years ago how much he enjoyed Baptist Preaching. You don't hear that from too many episcopalians. Ha!! I know Col. Skidmore is in the loving arms of our Savior Jesus Christ. I cannot wait to see him.
