They had four children, Timothy Scott Skalsky, Todd Andrew Skalsky, Adam Joseph Skalsky and Katherine Ruth Skalsky. Tim and Sue raised their children on the farm west of Hartley. Sue was living there until right before she passed. She loved life on the farm and had dreams of what her grandchildren could do on the farm in the future.
