  2. Prayers to Scotts family, although it’s been many years since I have seen him some of my fondest memories were spending time with him and Craig in middle and high school. He was always making us laugh..

  4. A tear streamed down my cheek when I saw this about a childhood friend. There are friendships in life that you make as kids you will remember forever. Throughout life whenever me and Scott’s path crossed it was like we were kids again. I can still hear his Mom hollering on the sidelines for her BabyBoy whether it was Soccer or Swimming she was always there.

    There is never any words that can stop the pain or heal the hurt but would like to extend my deepest condolences to the family.

  5. Dear Sheila,

    I did not know your husband very well but he left an impression on my son Peyton and I. Peyton was riding by your house on his bike a couple of years ago and his chain kept coming off. Scott was outside and stopped what he was doing and flipped the bike over, got dirt, oil and grease all over himself and fixed his bike. Peyton even came back over one day and he fixed it again. Scott advised me on how to do it myself and why that particular bike was not the right size, etc. for him and then told me exactly what kind and size to buy him. I wrote it all down, told my husband (who knows nothing about bikes) and we saved that paper and bought him exactly what Scott said to for Christmas. It goes straight to the obvious character of who Scott was to stop and help a child he didn’t even know.
