“SKEETER RABBIT”
Message from The Electric Boogaloo Family
On Friday, May 12th, 2006, Steven Nicholas AKA Skeeter Rabbit, began his journey in the afterlife. A true warrior and tremendous spirit, Skeet leaves behind a legacy and an afterglow that will illuminate the lives of many for years to come. His wonderful attributes have left a permanent presence and impact on those he loved and cared for.
Skeet was unmistakably larger than life. Although he stood at a hulking 6'4, even this massive body could barely house his overwhelming sensitivity and concern for his family and friends. Not only was he a gentle giant, Skeet's warrior spirit protected and nurtured those he loved. Able to balance mercy and wrath, his position as "Sergeant at Arms" was upheld to the highest degree.
A born leader, Skeet constantly shared his views and guided many through their struggles and achievements. Wise and compassionate, he was blessed with the ability to soothe and heal those who turned to him for strength and direction.
Those who had the privilege to know him will never forget him. His youthful character, marvelous sense of humor and profound intensity captured our hearts and offered us a breath of fresh air in a world full of constant struggle.
Skeeter Rabbit's legendary status and pioneering individuality continues to inspire and shape the "Funkstyles" and Hip Hop communities worldwide. As a senior member of the Electric Boogaloos, he relentlessly performed and passed on the dance forms "popping" and "locking" to younger generations. Scientifically presenting formulas and equations, he helped to preserve the sacred Electric Boogaloo blueprint. Skeet was a brilliant being. His energy and passion for artistic expression was contagious and set the standards for many.
A true folk hero and a soldier of culture, Skeet's influence lives through those of us who continue to strive towards a cultural imperative.
We don't die, we multiply!
Skeeter Rabbit, K.C., C.C. Rider, Steven Nichols, we will miss you tremendously and you will always live in our hearts. May God have mercy on your soul, grant you peace and comfort your family and friends.
