Charles “Skammer” Skoda

I have been so fortunate in my life to have met and worked with so many amazing people.. but when I think about true lifelong friends the list is a bit shorter.

At the top of that list is Charles “Skammer” Skoda.

Skammer, Steve McShea, and I started our first company together. Skammer was brilliant and had an incredible impact on everyone around him – most of all his Family and friends.

Today is Skammer’s birthday.

We lost him this past year with another great friend Steve DeWolf. This picture was taken shortly before they passed away.

What I always will remember about Skammer is that no matter what was going on his life… whatever troubles he might be having… he always… always… was checking on other people.

Skammer you were a giant of a man… a loving Husband, Father, Brother, and Team mate. We miss you like crazy and honor you today.

Happy Birthday buddy.

Skammer and his Son Chase.
