Mystery Classmate 082

Congratulations to Pam Van Cara Collis, Linda Wolff, Donna Andreas Copley, Kelly Sauer Mazon, and Carolyn Wasko, all of whom correctly identified Mike Skoff ('84) as Mystery Classmate #82 and are listed in the order that their responses were received.

In case you were wondering, Mike has been living in Chester, VA (near Richmond) for the past four years and has been married to Sharon Wasko ('84) for fifteen years. Their children are Melissa, 10 and Nicholas, 8 (the two children shown closest to Mike in the picture). He currently works at DuPont as a senior electrical engineer in the process control group. Mike has moved around since college to Eastern PA; Richmond, VA; Waynesboro, VA; Twinsburg, Ohio and then to Chester. Mike spends a lot of his free time coaching the kids playing fastpitch softball and baseball.

Several classmates had fond memories of Mike.

Linda Wolff remembered that Mike always seemed a bit nervous. She added, “The very best thing about Mike is his wife, Sharon Wasko. She is a good person and great mother.”

Neighbor Donna Andreas Copley reported that Mike and Sharon haven’t changed a bit, noting that “they both look like they just jumped from '84 to '04 with barely a wrinkle! Mike and I (and Sharon used to) both work for DuPont. Mike is still a super brain and can probably outprogram or troubleshoot most of the other engineers around here, but he doesn't get credit because his BS factor isn't high enough in front of the managers.”

Karen Campbell Ricci guessed John Stanton. Maria Wojtaszek Romanelli guessed Tom Murphy. Brian Talbert guessed Danny Kun.

Leann Impavido Mendenhall didn’t guess, but accused the Mystery Classmate of kidnapping Dewey from Malcolm In The Middle.
