Oh man! Scotty. It had been a long time since I have seen you, but when we hung out, it was definitely trouble. Rest easy big fella! My thoughts and prayers go out to his family.

I'm at a loss for words right now. Scott was my best friend in high school! He lives with my family for a couple of years after. We had been back in contact over the past year or so and it was so refreshing.
Mr. and Mrs. Spangler (Kelli too), I'm so sorry for your loss!!!
I don't even know what to say right now.

I am very sorry to hear of Scott's passing. My husband and I lived across the creek from him and enjoyed getting to know him over the years. He was always quick with a hello, to share a story, and if we needed anything he was there to help. Prayers for comfort to the family during this time.
