He was sitting in his home when he died.

Mr. Skattebo is survived by four sons, Clarence, Arthur and Francis, all of Wallingford, and Loyd of Graettinger; and a daughter, Mrs. Lottie Graff of Wallingford.

Mr. Skattebo came to Wallingford 55 years ago from Wisconsin where he was born, and settled on a farm near Wallingford. He has been retired and has lived in Wallingford for 24 years. Mrs. Skattebo died eight years ago.
