Skip is a caring, compassionate human who met Polly through mutual friends, and the two were married in 1992. In 1996 they bought acreage in Dallas, Oregon, where the OPR mission began.
Skip plays an important role in maintaining the grounds and providing security for the sanctuary. When Skip retired from his 'normal' job as a golf course mechanic, he was presented with an award for not missing any days for 19 years!
His dedication to the monkeys surpasses that award in that he, as well as Polly, have not taken vacation time away from the sanctuary in 23 years!
