Scott was the smartest guy in the room and never had to tell anyone that he was. Once he began speaking, you just knew it. He'll be missed for a long time.

We had fun together at Westinghouse, hanging out in Maryland, and on trips to New York to see his grandparents (grandma was a hoot) and mom. I also was educated about life there and met some of his buddies (Dominic and Ritchie), and seeing the "palace" Saturday Night Fever was filmed in. In Maryland we continued to stay in touch and I saw his daughters grow up.

I can remember Scott from as far back as 4th grade. Today I can remember more details then I would expect. I can remember the names of his grandparent's dogs. I can remember the layout of the house he grew up in. I can remember the smell of his grandmother's cooking on the stove. I can remember the fractured chalk statue used to outline the punch ball bases on the street of Paerdegat 12. There was always a pedal drawn off of 1st base to prevent a collision on the field. I can remember his mother's old blue Opel.

I paralleled his journey through Brooklyn College and Brooklyn Polytech. I also attended many classes with him. I was amazed when he eyeballed my weeklong preparation of Physics notes on a Sunday night and outscored me Monday morning on the test. In many cases his achievements seemed to be accomplished effortlessly, while in others he worked with extreme passion. In each case he was an achiever. He returned the favor and taught me Electrical Engineering, his way. After a 15 minute session explaining circuits, a game of chess, a 7:00 pm episode of MASH and a shot of schnapps I was my class expert. During the test I would hold up my bluebook while by colleagues sat behind me and would also benefit from Scott's knowledge.

He particularly had a passion for fun, adventure and storytelling. He always included all those around him. It wasn't usual for him to walk out of room with a few new friends after telling a captivating story. At my wedding I watched him bait a few friends into commenting on an aging woman and then followed up by introducing them to his grandmother. I never intended to be in the Paerdergat 12 Olympics, but with Scott there was no choice. As a child I was also subjected to the on-going games of Risk, where Scott would often be accused of changing the rules as the game progressed. He didn't like losing a competition, while at the same time losing was a rare occurrence.

We weren't too formal on the Paerdegats and we didn't call in advance. Scott might just pop in, toss your shoes in your lap and drag you out to Sebago.
