5-22-38/5-1-16 

Skip passed away May 1, 2016, of esophageal and colon cancer. He was 76. Nephew of the French impressionist Henri Bonnard, Skip worked as a newspaper columnist in The Hamptons, NY, and managed the Millenium Art Gallery in East Hampton. He settled in Lake Worth in 2002 and for a while managed an art gallery on Lake Avenue. He was active in Lake Worth's recovery community and on May 4th would have celebrated 41 years of sobriety. He was mentor to many seeking recovery. A raconteur with a vast and sometimes acerbic knowledge of fashion and the arts, for many years he co-hosted the syndicated talk show "Sudsy Says" on WLNG in Sag Harbor, NY. His co-host was Nedda di Montezemolo, "Mrs. Sudsy." The show was briefly reprised on a Lantana radio station in 2013. Skip is survived by Mrs. Sudsy of Washington, DC, and his beloved, Camila Eran Hastings of West Palm Beach. A celebration of his life will be held on Thursday, May 26, 7:30PM to 9:30PM at Mother Earth Sanctuary Cafe, Lake Worth. Source: PBPostObits

We are so sorry to hear of Skip's passing, it was always fun catching up on the local news with him.
And we will miss seeing Skip in the neighborhood riding his bike. He loved our dog and was never too busy to stop and give him encouraging words.
