Read MoreTo all of Scott's loved ones, family and friends, my heart goes out to you at this time of immense sadness. I will always consider Scott a role model as someone who never wasted a moment, from age 13 and throughout his life insisting on playing the music he loved. That is true inspiration.

I am very saddened to hear of Scott's passing. Although I did not know Scott well, I have seen him perform in various Cleveland bands over the last 20some years. My sympathies go out to Scott's family and friends.

To Tom and the Eakin family -- I am very sad to hear about Scott. He was incredibly talented, and a great guy. I remember when Sean, Frasier and I met him, Dave A. and Tom at Studio A Rama 1982 or 3, and went back to Elyria to "jam" with Scott and Dave. They were 13 and we were 16 at the time, so I drove them back to Shaker Hts.
He will be missed.
