Adam C. Skinner, 16, of Chillicothe, died unexpectedly Sunday, March 7, 2010, in his home following a courageous struggle with epilepsy. He was born March 26, 1993, in Chillicothe, to Jeffery E. and Lori A. (Cox) Skinner, who survive.

Ashbrook; maternal great-grandparents Russ and Wilma Wintersheimer, all of Chillicothe; numerous aunts, uncles and cousins; and many friends. He was predeceased by his paternal grandfather William E. Skinner. Adam was an outgoing, friendly young man who loved music and specifically loved to sing. He was excited to have been accepted into the Chillicothe High School Symphonic Choir even though his illness prevented him from participating. He frequented Middlegrounds and moved in many circles including the Jefferson Avenue Church of Christ youth group. He never knew a stranger and loved everyone he met unconditionally. He strived to be a shining light in the lives of everyone who knew him and he succeeded. Funeral services will be held at 7:00pm Friday, March 12, at the Haller Funeral Home with Rev. Timothy Marhoover officiating. There will be no graveside service. Friends may call from 5-7pm Friday at Haller Funeral Home.
