Scotty, I have never stopped searching for the answers to give peace to our kids, and mom and dad and the brothers and their families. I can only hope that someone will step forward, as we know they must. Someone knows something about this, and please come forward to help us. I hope you are at peace, and you are sorely missed by all.

I just want to say that we will all miss Scott greatly. I had known Scott for 15 years and worked with him for 5. He was so fun to be around and we always made each other laugh. He thought I was a scaredy cat because I didn't like working on the scaffolding and I told him it didn't bother him because he jumped out of airplanes. ha On these nice days I expect to hear him pull up on his Harley. I know he is watching over all of us and he will always be with us. We will miss you Scott!

Peace to all of Scott's family and friends as we fondly remember his giving spirit. As a lifetime friend of my sister Christy, I was lucky enough to spend a cherished afternoon with him on his recent visit to Arizona. He offered words of wisdom and we all laughed as we gazed across the glorious mountainous terrain near Sunset Point. We had our photo taken by a monument by the mountain and this is what it said... "As the sun sets on our fallen companions, may they always be remembered."
Yes, he will always be in our hearts.

To the friends and family of R.Scott Parrish: I met Scott in 1980, when he was doing a backflip in a neighborhood bar. I said "Who is that?!" Scott and my husband started a business together, (Doc's Cycle Clinic), and Scotts been a friend to me, and my family ever since. I got the privledge to ride beside him on my own harley. He just came out to visit me in Febuary. I am so thankful for that time that God gave us together. Its not the end of the trail, its the beginning of the trail, for you, my friend. May you ride your harley forever, in everlasting life. I love you, Christy

My heartfelt condolences go out to Scott's family and all who knew him. His death is a horrible loss for all of us. Everyone who met Scott knew they had a friend for life - his infectious smile, his kindness and generosity were a part of his daily life. The word "stranger" didn't exist in his vocabulary - he made friends wherever he went. His friends and family were so very important to him, as were the simplest things - walking in the park, a beautiful sunset, watching a storm roll in. No one could contain the free spirit that was Scott. Though it now seems that we were together only a short time, I have a lifetime of memories of our time together. I learned a lot from him, as did my sons, Brent and Chad. I know that our lives were better for knowing and loving him. While the loss of Scott will leave a void in the hearts of all who knew him, take comfort in knowing your life path crossed with this wonderful man. He will be missed by many, but we all have our memories to sustain us.

Our deepest sympathy goes out to Scott's Family & Angela. Such a unbelieveable, unforgettable loss. Scott had an incredible way of letting you know that we all were not only His friend, but someone special in His precious life. We all will miss His hearty laugh, BIG smile, and His loving heart.
May we all find comfort in knowing that Scott loved His family and friends, and that we may all find the peace and love that He walked with everyday.
Because of Scott's generosity, I had the opportunity to work with Him side by side for 10 yrs. with Doc's Cycle Clinic and My shop Auto Art...He was not only a best friend, but a brother.
You Scott, will be missed BEYOND belief...We love you...and we'll RIDE again.

The words are hard to come by, but Scott was an incredible friend, a good father and a wonderful grandpa to all of our grandchildren. I promise to do my best to help them always remember this and so much more. We will always miss our friend, and try to remember the happy times and how he loved to make everyone laugh. We were much better as friends than we were as partners, and we always laughed that it took us so long to figure this out.We will miss you more than words can say.

Dear Friends, I just want you to know that my thoughts and prayers are with you all. One of the things that Scott and I talked about most is our love for FAMILY. The first time that Angie introduced Scott to my then 3 year old daughter she said "Who are you, and what are you doing with "my" Angie?" Needless to say she spent the entire night with them per Scotts request. She has been in love with him ever since. We loved to have him over for dinner because he was always grateful. (And the first in the food line) He was forever talking about his kids, grandkids and of course no amount of sun and fun could keep him from his Sunday ride. Love and Strength to you all.

While no words of mine can ease your loss, I just wanted you to know that I and many of his friends at ONE are grieving with you. Scott's death is a sad loss for you and many others. I've known Scott since high school and our path's crossed many times throughout the years. He always had a kind word or uplifting comment to make and his smile was contagious. He will truly be missed.

This year won't be the same for many, without Scott around.My thoughts and prayers with the great family Scott always talked about.
It won't be the same for us at Lakeside Rose Garden. We would always look forward to Scott strolling through the park early in the morning. He would always stop to say "Good Morning" or wave. Later he would drive or ride by on his way to work and honk. He was a great guy to talk to.
Last year I was working at the park on a Saturday for "The Great American Cleanup Project." Scott came through the park on his rollerblades,shocked to see me on a Saturday. When he found out what we were doing, he went home and got tennis shoes to help us! That was the a natural response for him.
