Rest easy, Scott. My favorite memory/memories of you are how highly you regarded our military veterans, bless your soul! Even people you disliked, if they were vets, you’d mention how grateful you were for their service. I appreciated that about you.
I hope you’re having a blast wherever you are, in the wild blue yonder, dancing with Pepper, giving high fives to your fallen comrades, or drinking some type of fluffy cloud lager.

I was so sorry to hear about Scott. I will always remember all the good times me, Pepper, Scott, Duvona, Meg and Bonnie

Really glad I talked to you a few times recently, you were a man respected by my dad and loved as a father and a friend. I heard the great stories of how you and Pepper helped him. You were a stubborn but kind soul and a down to earth nice guy. You deserved the best and I’ll miss ya Scott. Thanks for being there and teaching my things after my dads funeral.

Scott and I grew up together on Columbus Drive. He was a great friend, and father. We caught up not too long ago on the phone. I am glad we had that opportunity. Rest in peace my friend. We are diminished.

Scott was the love of my life. I will miss him every day the rest of my life. We loved each other with all our hearts and he showed me how much he loved me every single day. My best friend and soul mate is gone and now I will raise Rylee and Carlee just as Scott directed me to do. I love you forever!!!
