Tony was our favorite Weeble. He took the kidding with his always good nature. He was a fine police officer. Always remained calm. Treated everyone with respect. A fellow Marine he may have slipped me a few extra details :). You can be proud of this good man. Semper Fidelis Tom Bolinder Lt QPD ret.

Marguerite, Jen and all Skip's family, I am very sorry for your loss Skip will be leaving a lasting impact on everyone who knew him. And he will be deeply missed by all who had the pleasure of knowing him. Aruba will never be the same. I wish I could do something to ease your horrific pain. But all I can do is let you know that I am here and that I care. Love ❤️ Pat
