I was deeply saddened to hear of Scot's passing, especially so suddenly. Although I had not seen him since our days at BHS and subsequent ten year reunion, I always remembered his laughter, friendship, and caring nature. He will be deeply missed by all who knew him. The world is a poorer place for having lost him.

If you have a brother who has made you laugh, punched you, stuck up for you, drove you crazy, hugged you, watched you succeed, saw you fail, picked you back up, cheered you on, made you strong, listened to your problems just because you asked & or in my case...a best friend, be sure to tell him daily you love him!!!

Scot,
I wish I could have told you all this! I love and miss you so much! Can't wait for the day we meet again and get to have our battle of the wits! Oh and thank you for the beautiful sunrise the other morning!

Dear Michael, Norma, Shelly and Gina,

I am so thankful to have shared several years of Scot's funny, tumultuous, and exciting life. I am sadden he is gone and so sorry for your loss.

I am comforted though to know, through my personal experiences with Scot, that he is in heaven with the Lord right now, because of his personal faith in Jesus, our savior. May this fact comfort you as well.

Sincerely,

Deanna Alvarado Howell
