Scott I always had fun with you and Mark on the river. without a doubt you were one of the best people I know and acted with class. You will be missed.
Stacy and Family, I am so very sorry for your loss!
Best neighbor EVER. Scott will be sorely missed by everyone who knew him. RIP!
I did not know Scott personally but I feel like I did. I work with his sister Stacey and she always shared about the wonderful adventures she had with him as a kid growing up into adulthood. Her stories were always full of mischief and comedy. I have picture of how fun- loving and strong he was.
I offer my heart felt condolences to Stacey and the entire family. May the memories you have hold you over until you see him again.
Scotty always always made me laugh…I worked at Nestle company store..and he never left without ice cream for his best friends/his dogs…he made me laugh…you are a brave..good guy…Scott…I am sure angels will love you
Very sorry to hear about Scotty’s passing. I know he fought a hell of a battle. He was a pleasure to coach, he was one heck of a wrestler. I’m sure he will be missed by family and friends. My heart and prayers go out to all.
