I think about Scott quite often; our time at Tandem, playing tennis for the treasured "Cubs Hat" award and dinners in Chicago later in his life. I still miss talking football with him...

It saddened me when I heard about Scott during the Willowbrook reunion this past week. I remember him well from Jefferson and Willowbrook and at Grace Church. My prayers are with his family.

Very sad to hear about Scott's passing. I spoke with him 2 days prior to his death & he had all his energy and opinions about college ball and cars. He was one of the most talented guys I've worked with and we had lots of fun times playing tennis in OakBrook and at the houseparty he and Nancy threw at their place in Naperville. Let's all remember Scott when he was at his best and smile...

We are so sorry to hear about Scott. We all have many fond memories of growing up together on Euclid Ave. Most of all rememebered is his infectious smile. The entire Sanneman clan is in our prayers.
