1256. Francis (Skee) Goodhart
(Francis) Skee Goodhart is probably the most remarkable member of this American branch of the family. He started out as a skater for Holiday on Ice (comedy team of 'Skee and Lee'), and ended up owning Holiday on Ice International. He died a few years ago and Betty sold the company a while back. He was born the same time that the character of 'Uncle Walt' in the newspaper cartoon strip "Gasoline Alley" found baby 'Skeezix' in a basket. He was called Skee from shortly after birth and never went by his given name. He also changed the spelling to 'Goodhart' for professional use.
