Skibas, in their 80s, still volunteer faithfully at Friendship Room | News, Sports, Jobs

dhinkley@thealpenanews.com News Photos by Darby Hinkley Sally and Julian Skiba sit and talk about their many years volunteering at the Friendship Room. ALPENA Serving others is not just a hobby for this senior couple ­– it’s a calling. Julian and Sally Skiba, ages 85 and 83, respectively, volunteer at the Friendship Room three days per week. Sally will turn 84 on May 18. Featuring the Skibas fits right into the theme of honoring April as National Volunteer Month. Sally has been serving at the Friendship Room since the first day it opened, on Nov. 14, 1988. She recalls they had one pot of soup and some sandwiches, and only a handful of patrons that day. But even if there was just one mouth to feed, she would be there to do it.
