Sheryl Allen 'Skip' Shipe, 89 of Mason, passed away on Friday, November 5, 2021. Born to Cecil and Myrtle (nee Nickerson) Shipe on September 21, 1932, in Kendallville, Indiana.

Skip enjoyed being outdoors doing gardening or tinkering in his garage. He could fix just about anything. Do it yourself projects were some of his favorite things to work on. Skip enjoyed keeping himself busy. His daughters would describe him as "one of the hardest working people they know."

He had a great sense of humor and could be a little goofy at times.
