Scott and I met in high School and our friendship was to be for a lifetime. We shared many great times, road trips and hitch-hiked around New England once just because we could then. I hear his laugh often , stumble on a trail he could scale like a "mountain goat monkey" ...his words to me once and so I smile whenever I think of Scott.

Scott and I went to Monmouth Regional High School together and were team mates on Cross Country, Indoor and Outdoor Track Teams. He was admirable and had a real passion for running back then. He was a good friend in many ways. I am very sorry that he left us so soon, but I am glad to have spent time with him and enjoyed his presence and influence. I'll never forget his bright rosy red cheeks after running. Peace and a pleasant afterlife, brother.

I just learned of Scott's passing while on a bike ride. I had a lot of respect for Scott as a cyclist and we shared the love of BMW 2002s. I am very saddened.

I have worked with Scott on projects periodically over the past 30 years and I have a great respect for him his work ethic, his craftsmanship, and his honesty. Thank you Scott for the outstanding referrals that you sent my way. You truly understood the value of one's talent rather than how much money they could save you. You will truly be missed. My deepest regrets to your family I will pray for them that god will bless them with peace. Take care, my friend. Jim

I met Scott on the racing scene and I think I can say I knew well what he looked like from the back! I didn't know him well, but we had some good times together.

I didn't know Scott very well, but in the short time we were friends I learned how much he loved and enjoyed life through and throughout. He loved his incredible work as it was truly a craft, his passion and talent for cycling, traveling, his health was very important to him, helping others and especially his 2 beautiful daughters. Sometimes you don't know someone that long and they make a memorable impact on you as I am sure Scott did with everyone who he came into contact with.

May he RIP always, may he always be remembered, may his daughters always remember how much he loved them and may his memory live on forever. Ride on Scott .. Michele

My Deepest Sympathy to Scotts parents, family and children, we went to high school together and then started our Framing careers working for "Pop" We then both ventured out on our own building our own Framing and Building Companies with great success. You will truly be missed.
