Mary, Kim, Hunter, Brandon and Paul,
We are so sorry for your loss. Scott was the type of guy who could always make you laugh and we certainly shared more than a couple with him over the years. Anthony always loved hanging with Scott and I know they shared a lot of laughter, a little bit of craziness, and a mutual respect for one another through a long lasting friendship.
We hope in the coming months you will find peace in the knowledge that Scott will always hold a special place in the hearts of many.
Love,

Anthony and Maria Markos
