Scott became a part of my life back in the cable rat era where he worked with my x. Living in the big town of Cisco, you can't help but know each other. Sometimes a stranger enters your life and over time he becomes your friend.
we all come with issues, we learn, we grow, we move on & sometimes we move away and lose touch but we never forget our friends or how our lives were touched by that friend. May Jesus comfort the family at this time. Duanna Green (champaign, IL)

To Bobbie and family. To Harriette and Rick. I'm Scott's ex wife. It breaks my heart to hear about Scott. He had a good heart and enjoyed many things. I'm so sorry for your lose and your heart break. May God be with you.

Years ago, Scott received some mail with his name misspelled: AL-GO-NEE rather than Alongi. Thus, he would remain. He was a wonderful brother-in-law. He even named ducks after us! He was a champion of animals and impatient with fools. He had incredible taste in antiques, and a real eye for style. His shirts were legendary.
We think of Scott so often in the garden. We wish things had worked out differently.
For this huge loss to you, we are truly sorry. For the love of his family around him, we are grateful. May God bless him, and comfort you.

My goodness, I am in shock. Scott and I were great friends when we worked together at GCC. I have many fond memories of him being a part of our family. My prayers are with the family.
