He was born on May 31, 1934, in Dayton, Ohio to the late Conrad, Sr. and Marion (Goettler) Skarha. In addition to his Parents, Conrad is preceded in death by his Wife, Shirley Skarha, who he adored for an amazing 41 years, and her Daughter, Karen LaForsch, along with Elaine and Lee's Mother, Anita Skarha in 1972.

Conrad was a long-time resident of the Dayton, Ohio area and was a1952 graduate of Roosevelt High School. He served in the United States Army and graduated from The University of Dayton in 1960. He worked for the government until his retirement. Conrad and Shirley adventured in their travel trailer throughout 48 states and 6 Canadian provinces. They parked their trailer a few times to visit Hawaii, Alaska, Mexico, England and the Scandinavian countries. They were classic "snowbirds", wintering in Florida for 15 years.
