It's been more than a decade since you passed, but your influence on me and how I now approach the world still lingers. You helped me to learn compassion towards strangers and to give those I don't know the benefit of the doubt. I owe a lot of who I have become to who you were when I knew you.

You are a candle in the wind ... your passing has left a hole in my heart.

Scotty, I'm still in complete disbelief that you are gone. Ya know a lot of your positive influence is what drove me to going on a mission and doing what was right in my life. My friendship with you is eternal. I keep thinking about all of the fun crazy things that we did. We had a ton of fun. I am sad for your family and beautiful little girls who are now without you and it breaks my heart. You are so loved by so many people and have done so much more then im sure you ever thought. The things I learned front you made me a better person. I love you Brother. I will see you when I get on the other side.

You are truly missed Scott. You were more than a coworker, you were a great friend who was always willing to lend and extra hand no matter what and with an amazing smile. I know that you are in a much better place, but know that you have changed my life forever and you have taught me to be more thankful, be more helfpul and to stop and smell the roses often. You are missed Scott and always will be. Until we meet again in Heaven.

Scotty,
You are my sweet, fun loving, crazy Nephew. I love you. I will miss you more than words can correctly express. Your presents was always a very welcoming and loving force in my life. I will miss that and you terribly. Apparently I wasn't the only member of your fan club. I hope that you saw the hundreds and hundreds of people at your funeral, their attendance spoke volumes about how loved you were . And Scott, you were loved by many, many people. I listened to stories of your great acts of kindness and service given to others. I want you to know that it touched our souls and we are very proud to call you our own. Thank you for these beautiful, sweet, loving little girls. Touching them is, touching you. You are truly reflected in these little girls beautiful faces. They are sleeping by me tonight. We stayed up late and told funny "Daddy Scotty" stories until Makyla was snoring.. When I knelt down with Malea to pray before I tucked her into bed, she whispered the sweetest little prayer and asked her Heavenly Father to
"Please keep my Daddy watching over me and helping me"
And I know you will...
All of my Love,
your favorite aunt Deb
