Announcements, Adjournment Honors, and Remarks Under Special Privilege
Senator Wirch, with unanimous consent, asked that the Senate adjourn in honor of Mark Modory, who recently passed away in Kenosha. He was a community activist, worked at the Shalom Center helping the homeless, and he served in local government between the City Council and the County Board for fifteen years. He was a wonderful individual, and I’d like to adjourn in his honor.
Senator Agard, with unanimous consent, asked that the Senate adjourn in honor of Dr. James Skibo, a wonderful community member, a generous teacher, and a brilliant archaeologist. Dr. Skibo passed last Friday morning in what is a tragic loss for our community. Wisconsin was lucky to welcome Dr. Skibo back to our community in 2021 to serve as our state archeologist after a decorated 27 years teaching at Illinois State University. During his time as state archeologist, Dr. Skibo was part of the historic dive team which uncovered a 3,000-year-old canoe from Lake Mendota, now one of Wisconsin’s great historical treasures. Dr. Skibo is remembered by the archaeology community for all that he brought to the table, from his gusto to his endless curiosity, brilliance, and humor. He is survived by his wife and high school sweetheart, Becky, and their children, Matthew and Sadie. Please join Senator Agard in honoring the great life and work of Dr. James Skibo.
Senator Quinn, with unanimous consent, asked that the Senate adjourn in honor of Chetek Police Officer Emily Breidenbach and Cameron Police Office Hunter Scheel who were killed in the line of duty on April 8, 2023, in Barron County. We mourn their passing and honor their memory and service to the State of Wisconsin.
Senator Wanggaard, with unanimous consent, asked that the Senate adjourn in honor of Wisconsin’s State Archaeologist, Dr. James Skibo, who passed away last week during a dive preparing for the upcoming maritime archaeology session. Jim joined the Wisconsin Historical Society in 2021, and oversaw Wisconsin’s 36,000 archaeological sites. He was instrumental in the recovery of two historic canoes, 1,200 and 3,000 years old respectively. Jim’s passion and enthusiasm reverberated throughout the state. An explorer at heart, Jim traveled Wisconsin on a mission to democratize archaeology, and he loved to tell the stories of the past through the lens of the archaeological record left behind. He truly was the “People’s Archaeologist,” as he often referred to himself. His passion for the field and for the importance of uncovering, preserving and sharing history was inspirational to us all and he will be deeply missed by so many. Please keep Jim’s wife and his children Matt & Sadie and the Wisconsin Historical Society family in your thoughts during this difficult time.
