Scott was an awesome man. I remember him from high school and after when he joined the military and married Fenya, I was so excited. Then the boys came along and I was even more excited. They are the perfect combo of Scott and Fenya. Gorgeous.
My heart goes to Scott's Mom and Bob, as well as Scott's Dad and his wife. Further, my love goes to Fenya and the boys. For Angela and her kids, and Scott's daughter, Ashley, my sincerest condolences--though I do not know you personally, I am so very sorry for your loss.
Scott did Kerman proud, may he rest in peace (and rock the hereafter).

Dear Verna, Bob, Alton, Angela and Scotty's sons and daughters. We are so saddened to learn of this tragedy. We are praying for your friends to comfort you, your faith to uphold you and your loving memories to carry you through. We pray your memories will build you a bridge your heart can cross whenever you're feeling sad. Just think, Scotty got to Heaven before us to make us a path to follow. May God keep you strong and light your path. God tells us He will never give us more than we can bare if we Trust in Him. So in prayer, we pray for your families daily. Love Charley & Carol Newman
