Keith "Skip" Enger - age 83, passed away peacefully in his sleep on January 28, 2014 at Springdale Village Rehabilitation Center in Mesa, AZ. He was born July 5, 1930 in Linton, ND to the late Oscar and Esther (Boyer) Enger. "Skip" was raised in North Dakota, Minnesota and Oregon. He graduated from Moorhead State University (MN) and earned his Master's Degree from L.A. State (CA) and later served in the U.S. Army during the Korean War.

"Skip" was an enthusiastic teacher and coach throughout much of his young career. He retired from the education system in 1981 so he could pursue other passions and interests such as traveling, golf, "squawkbox", politics, the desert climate, socializing with his family, friends and much more. "Skip" is survived by his wife, Bonnie; two sons, Kit (Kim) and Kurt; two grandchildren, Kolby (Kriste) and Kory, four great-grandchildren; one brother, John (Phyllis) and many nephews and nieces.
