"Skip"

On Thursday, August 6, 2015, Robert "Skip" Tash a native Washingtonian died after an almost three year fight with pancreatic cancer. He went to Perkiomen School, and attended the University of Miami for his undergraduate degree, which started his love affair with Florida. He finished his Bachelor's Degree at the University of Maryland.

After graduation, he started his career in Media Advertising. One of his proudest moments was helping in the late 1970s to get "Staying Alive" by the Bee Gees into rotation at many different radio stations.

After his career in Radio, Skip worked as an executive in the Advertising and Marketing business.

He met his wife, Krystina in Atlantic City, NJ. From that day forward Skip was head over heels in love with her. They would travel the world together, and in recent years would spend long weekends in Florida.

He is survived by his wife of over 25 years, Krystina Maria Tash, who he adored. He is also survived by his son, and many loving friends.

Skip will be remembered for his wit, wisdom, his love of golf, and most of all his passion for life.

A funeral service will be held on Sunday August 9, 2015 at 11 a.m. at Washington Hebrew Congregation, 3935 Macomb Street NW, Washington, DC. Interment to follow at King David Memorial Garden.
