Passing of Wes Skiles

[Robohips77]

My prayers and thoughts go to his family. I had the distinct opportunity to meet and dive with Wes in the early to mid 80's and then again in the mid 90's. A true conservationist and caretakeer of our Florida Waterways is gone. A tragic loss. May his family find peace in the knowledge that he has left lasting impressions for the rest of us to marvel.

The diving world has lost another pioneer. He was a great cavern and cave diver and a fantastic freelance photographer for National Geographic. (and an Ikelite customer)
