Not sure what to say?

It was a shocking, unfortunate, surprise for me landing on this page after searching for Scott online.

I worked with Scott on the Server Time Protocol for z Mainframe a few years ago. It was for this work that he received the IBM Corporate Award, the top technical award at IBM. Scott was always a cheerful person with rigor, insights and wisdom. He told me how beautiful Tucson was and asked me to visit him.

Now I will miss Scott dearly.

We are so sad to hear of Scott's death. Our thoughts and prayers go out to the entire family.

I knew Scott through his T11 standards work and always looked forward to catching with him at the meetings, he was really good person and will be missed.

Scott was such a good guy, he will be sorely missed.

I worked with Scott in standards development and he was always kind to me and fun to be around. He had a great smile and I have many fond memories of having dinners with him. He will be missed.

We are saddened to hear of this terrible news. I have spent countless hours working with Scott at IBM and at T11 standard meetings. I wish his entire family peace and happiness in the days to come. Roger and Wendy Hathorn

The richness of humanity is reduced with Scott's passing. A childhood friend, fellow Electrical Engineering peer at U.C. Davis, and vagabond traveling companion for many months in Brazil and elsewhere, I remember Scott's charming wit, keen intelligence, and magnetizing good nature. The definition of a true gentleman, Scott you will be missed.

I am shocked and saddened to learn of Scott's passing. I send my condolences to all.

I feel blessed to know Scott during our high school years. Whether it was watching him school adept basketball players who were usually a fool taller, or having him explain some of the more esoteric lyrics of Dark Side of the Moon, I was always impressed by Scott's abilities, intelligence, grace and modesty.

Perhaps I am most gratefully for Scott hosting me and two university friends during our...

Mr. Carlson, Vicki, Doug, Matt, Paige and Audrey:
I am deeply saddened by the news of Scott's passing. Scott was a great friend and a better person. I always had a deep respect for Scott because he was the best at everything he did. From sports, school, his travels, career and family. He always excelled.

He really lived life to it's fullest. I will always have fond memories of the times we had together. Scott will be deeply missed.
