We all miss Scott more with each passing day. He remains in our hearts and in our thoughts and he always will. He was so loved. He taught us all to be kind to one another. Sending you all lots of love today - and every day. Happy birthday in heaven, Scotty. Wish you were here.

Dear family of Scott: I was just sent this obituary. I am shocked. I must tell you how many wonderful conversations Scott and I had while he was fixing up the computers in my lab at Keefe Tech. What a great thinker! I communicated with him via Facebook once or twice after he left Keefe. I am very sad. Know that he was a great co-worker, that he helped me enormously when we were changing our technology, and that I loved talking to him about many things.Patricia BoydFormerly of Keefe Tech

While I didn't have the opportunity to get to know Scott well in the months I worked near him, I watched the strong camaraderie he shared with his team, saw the warm sincerity in his smiles and heard it in his greetings when we crossed paths. He is and will be missed. My deepest condolences to his family and all who loved him.
