Dear Parsons family,
It has been so long since we all gathered at the annual holiday party at Skippy's Music. So many wonderful memories, I can't even count them all. I'm so very sorry for your loss. Skip was such an incredible man, teacher, and mentor. He will be sorely missed.

We as a family have enjoyed numerous concerts featuring Skip and his band. We are grateful for the opportunities he presented on how to enjoy jazz music, and the whole family always looked forward to his band offering an evening on the Green at the Library, or at the Town Park. We feel fortunate to have had these experiences, and are sorry to hear of his passing.

So sad to read about Skip. I had just talked to him last week about his gallbladder surgery and he seemed to be doing well. First met Skip thru Dr Joe Slovak and he helped us many times with the fundraisers for St Clares Hospital. A lot of good times, Cruises on Lake George, fund raisers for New Orleans flood victims and many many others. I recall driving an antique car for Stacy or Jills wedding. You and jazz community lost a wonderful husband and talented musician. Doc Spring

MY MOST SINCERE CONDOLENCES TO THE ENTIRE FAMILY FOR YOUR LOSS. HE WAS A ONE OF A KIND.
I JOINED SKIP AND THE INITIAL RIVERBOAT JAZZ BAND IN JULY OF 1956 THRU AUGUST 1958 AND
IT WAS THE BEST TIME EVER. SKIP WAS A FANTASTIC LEADER, ALWAYS PATIENT, AND HELPED
ME UNDERSTAND "HIS" MUSIC LIKE NO ONE ELSE COULD.
HE WILL BE MISSED BY SO MANY FROM SO MANY PLACES.

Dear Linda and family,
Our deepest sympathies on Skip's passing. So much of our childhood and young adult life was spent listening to the Riverboat Jazz Band at the Fountain, on the cruise, at brunches, and more. As you know, jazz was the soundtrack to our lives thanks to our father - and so much of that was contributed by Skip and the band. So many happy memories. We know that he and our father Charlie ("Doc" to many) are no doubt enjoying many a fine Dixieland tune wherever they are and making sure everyone is having a blast.
Love and condolences,
The Poskanzers - Sarah, Rich, and Mike.

You don't know me but I, like thousands of others throughout the greater capital district, 'knew' and loved Skip and the RBJB.
An Albany legend with a legacy of fun music, entertainment and smiles and that's not bad.
Sincere condolences to your family.

I remember as a child, I would go w my mom Esther R. Tateo (RIP), as she used to sing w Skip sometimes when he and his band would perform at The Fountain Restaurant in Albany. She always loved to perform, and spoke highly of both Skip, and his band. I am sorry for your loss, and God speed Skip. I'm sure he will see my mom, and perform for all again.
