A great amount of time and distance prevented me from knowing Scott as the man and father he became. But the fact we are family supports a deep love and appreciation unaffected by both time and distance. I was saddened by the news of Scott's death on the very day of his funeral and also at the very hour the funeral was occurring. At that time I said a prayer for the family. I remember what a vivacious young boy Scott was, and so handsome. I know that he was one who brought much light and joy to those around him. We were always so happy when Scott and his mother, Barbara, and the rest of the family would make those Kilgore reunions in Alabama. I express my heartfelt sympathy to Scott's family. May your memories of Scott as a husband, a dad, a son, a brother, or a friend be a source of encouragement and inspiration as you face the days ahead. And please remember that nothing can separate you from the love of God who makes all things possible through Christ Jesus. May God bless you.

I want to add my best wishes to Scott's family. I first got acquainted with Scott in 1990-91, when he came to the old CB Commercial in Phoenix from Tucson. Though we have not been close by any means, I always appreciated his "enthusiasm" and his brash and unapologetic Texas attitude. I admired the manly way he fought his battle with ALS. I knew very well what he was going through, because my father had fought his own battle with the same terrible disease for eight years. The spirit that Scott had was inspiring. I am grateful to have known him. I think the spirit in the chapel at his memorial service today spoke volumes about the man that he was. I know he would have loved the laughter.

I am saddened by Scott's passing. Linda and I have so many fond memories of Scott, along with Chuck and Amy when we were a young married couple visiting Niki and Barbara in Atlanta. Boy, did Scott along with his siblings have so much life! I regret that distance kept us from knowing him as a young adult, husband and father. There is no doubt in my mind that God called Scott home because he needed his talents in his army. Our prayers are that GOD will strengthen you and comfort you as only HE is capable of doing

Please accept my sincere sympathy for your loss. Scott made the world a better place and he will be very much missed.

Scott was not only my colleague, but a fellow Texan, fellow Aggie, and good friend. I have so many fond memories of him. May your memories of the good times help you through these difficult circumstances and I pray that God will bless you during this time of sorrow.
