Daniel was a car enthusiast who learned the trade of car upholstery from his days in the Navy as a PR. He was a simple man who only needed a can of Coke, black licorice, salt and vinegar chips and a hot rod magazine to make him happy. He loved deep sea fishing, music, his wife and children.
Mr. Skelton is survived by his wife Kathy as well as his children Cristy, Daniel Jr. (Cindy), Bradley, Andrew (Jennifer), Amanda, Brandy (Michael), Mariah, Benny; his brothers Ken (Janet), Pete (Aeme) and his sister Karen; and his 9 grandchildren.
