Hello, my name is Trevor Terry and I am a coworker of Jamie Davis. I wanted to express my sympathies to the Skinner family. Please remember the words of Jesus at John 5:28, 29 where it says that the hour is coming in which all those in the memorial tombs will hear his voice and come out. So we will have the opportunity to see our loved ones again. Please know your family are in my prayers.

I worked with Sandy for many years at Marquette/Mindstream. We had many fun times together. Sandy could make you laugh even on your toughest day at work. She spoke of her family often and her love and pride were very clear. I know she's in a better place, but she will be dearly missed.
