I met Scottie 7 years ago, snowmobiling, threw friends. They told me wait to you meet Scottie, you are jut like him! It was an instint bond, better than brothers. To say we rode everyday 400+ miles with no map is no brag, just fact. My friends back home in Buffalo, NY won't ride with me anymore because they wouldn't or couldn't ride allday and night. Me and Scottie, we rode!! He was the BEST.. I was in my GLORY! Like Scottie, I work construction,...

I knew Scott from James Cape & Sons, and had alot of respect for his work ethics. He loved to do the tough jobs.
Later when we retired to Presque Isle, Wi., he'd stop in on his snowmobile to say hello from time to time. My wife referred to him as the "happy yooper". He was always in such good humor. We always enjoyed his visits and have alot of fun memories of him. With deepest sympathy,

Having worked with (and sometimes against) Scott for nearly thirteen years, I. like you, am greatly saddened by his passing.

Nickole, I was so sorry to read of your loss. Your heart must be so heavy. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your children. May you somehow eventually find peace.

To the family of Scott: Please accept my deepest sympathy in the loss of Scott. I met Scott about 18 years ago when I was a waitress in a small restaurant in a little town called Fredonia. Scott would come in frequently so I got to know him quite well. He was a great guy. He always smiled and was so full of life. I remember having conversations with him about his snowmobiling trips to Michigan and how much he enjoyed them. I unfortunately lost contact with Scott and was extremely...

I am so sorry for your loss, Scott was like another son to me, he came down & lived with us for a time, & did wonders for his company. I always enjoyed him when he came around. & now he will be greatly missed. I will say a prayer for him & his family, & you are in my thoughts
