I'm sorry to hear of Scott's passing. I met Scott years ago when we were students in junior high school. Scott was a friendly person who always cared about others from all walks of life. He will be fondly remembered and deeply missed.

My deepest sympathy to the Robinson Family.

My uncle Scott was the most kind & giving soul that I've crossed paths with. His creative mind & colorful spirit could never be forgotten. He was incredibly selfless, contributing to several organizations & individuals in the community. He was everyone's advocate; he took a stand for what was right. Scott had several challenges throughout his life but he never showed an ounce of anger; he was very optimistic & lived for each day, living it to the fullest. I admire so many things about him...his determination, creativity, how he could always make light of a situation...Scott was such a beautiful soul...I will selfishly miss him immensely as will my family... for eternity.

My deepest sympathies to Scott's mom, Sally and brothers and sisters and Tina and Chris. I have many fond memories of Scott. His sense of humor and take on life were so honest it made me either laugh or cry...I encourage you to view his Facebook page to see the things that made him laugh. I always enjoyed seeing Scott and visiting with him at family reunions. So sad to see him go so early in life. He will be greatly missed. I pray for your healing and wish you comfort and peace.

Kindness, and a humble glow, would cloak you. Your prowess in outreach to the lonely, the poor, and the elderly was always a constant. You could fill a room with laughter, and your trademark sense of humor. When I was troubled, an afternoon at your peaceful home, along with the feeling of comfort only the voice of a brother could bring, would ease my mind. You are loved, and will continue warm our hearts with happiness until we see you again...then it will be paradise.

My brother Scott was a man of incredible faith and hope. He gave graciously of his boundless love and support, inspiring me to be the best I could be. He was a fierce advocate for those in life's lesser circumstances. Ironically, we are all lesser now without him.

My Big Bro Scott Gratitude Robinson was he most giving person I have ever known. Not only to his family, but to strangers on the streets. Scott was very active in the community. He was involved in:
Compassionate Communication of Central Ohio/NVC, Central Ohio Sierra Club Friday Night Walks, Humanist Community of Central Ohio, The Hemlock Society, and Central Ohio Prisoner Advocates. He was a volunteer with the American Red Cross and Emotions Anonymous.
He had been active at First Unitarian Universalist Church of Columbus as a member.
He earned an award for his work as a swim guard, and kept swimmers safe at many locations throughout central Ohio.
He enjoyed: creating ceramic sculptures at the Cultural Arts Center, painting, studying anatomy and physiology, participating in Big Scioto Barn Dances, bicycling, Gallery Hop walks, and camping. So as I sit here and think about what a wonderful Big Brother he was, I can't help but think about all of the other people who were in his live that will miss him too . Scott Gratitude Robinson, may you rest pain free and be Happy In Heaven! Kiss Daddy, Grandma and Karen for me! XO Always in my heart. Love you so much! Love Baby Sista Jules and Bro Tim

Best Big Bro In the World!!! Gone but never forgotten!
