Aunt Nadine and Family, I was so shocked and saddened to learn of Scooter's death. It makes it a blessing for him to be with Jan so soon after her passing but it makes it so very hard on all the loved ones left behind. Remembering you in my thoughts and prayers, Cathy

Scoot, grandma was just remembering how we called you E.T. when you were little because you resembled him, you were so cute. I remember your sense of humor, sometimes innocent, sometimes a little on the wicked side. I know you loved your mom and missed her so very much as we will now miss you both. We love you DUDE. Judy, Stacy and Justin
