He also jokingly claimed to have taught "advanced detention hall." Skip was lucky enough to have enjoyed the fun of ranching at the Killeen family ranch that is now the development Skipcha Mountain—the name a combination of the two brothers' names. He later ranched at Cleo, Texas, on the family ranch. He enjoyed every aspect of deer hunting, from feeding the deer, preparing for deer season, traveling to the lease— even if it just involved going out the back door— and hanging his trophy horns throughout the house. Following his father's example, Skip became an educator. He grew up in Killeen and attended the public schools there. He graduated from Angelo State University in its first graduating class in 1967 and completed his Master's at East Texas State University in Commerce in 1971.
