Susan - I just learned about Scott and I know he is missed what an amazing life. I've enjoyed knowing him and remember many good stories shared around the table. With sympathy - Donna Beal

I enjoyed playing tennis with Scott ! A true gentleman in every sense of the word.

Susan, you and the family are in my thoughts and prayers. I am so sorry for your loss. deb
