| Skip Jackson of Hendersonville Tennessee passed yesterday (June 26th). Skip played for Faron Young, The Kendals, and others. He was a fine player, though pretty much retired from music for several decades. Arrangements are pending. |

I'm sorry to read of Skip's passing. He was a great guy and player. We did many package shows with The Kendalls back in the late 70s - early 80s and I always looked forward to visiting with and listening to Skip playing his Blanton.
My deepest sympathies and prayers go out for Skip, his family and friends.
Sincerely,
Chris "Tiny" Olson |

| In Tulsa several years ago while with Faron Young's Band, Skip came out to a club I was working in and jammed several hours with us before heading on to their next show. He would show you anything at the drop of a hat, a real gentlemen for sure. |

Sorry to hear of his passing. I first met Skip when he lived in Burleson,TX He was a great player and as he went on to other jobs he just got better. RIP Brother

Sweet and funny guy, got me started on psg.
A real musical artist who could play the stock licks but always added his own special spice. Great guy to be on the road with. |
