To anyone who was lucky enough to know him, Skyler was the true definition of one of a kind. Never one to conform, he lived his life trying to always become a better version of himself, never being satisfied with that status quo. Everything he did was big - from the way he loved, to the weights in the gym, to the way he would put his hands on his knees and belly laugh uncontrollably at the antics of my teen girls.
He taught me life lessons that I will carry with me for a lifetime - the things that you'd never learn in a classroom and can only be taught by someone with great integrity, grit, and passion for the world. Skyler often tied his life lessons to being on the fire department. He would explain that no man is capable of doing it all alone and that it would ultimately render itself ineffective if they tried. There is strength in numbers, in relying on your team, and trusting that they will aid you along the way. Skyler loved being a firefighter and it showed with his eagerness to learn from every call.
Mission Ready Wellness was built on the very foundation of Skyler's belief system. It was his mission to spread his knowledge of functional fitness to firefighters and beyond - taking extra care to ensure the success of those who chose to better themselves. His vast knowledge of human anatomy, psychology of others, and investment into his beliefs was as the core of everything he did - which is what we strive to achieve in his honor. We bring your department all of the tools by the experts who can carry on the Skyler McCoy legacy.
