So sorry to learn of Scarlett's passing. We weren't friends per se but long standing acquaintances...I met her shortly after moving to Southside in 1992. Then she built around the corner from me and I drove by her house almost daily. The other day I wondered about her - hadn't seen her out front for a wave...so I looked her up. So sorry for the family's loss...I always liked Scarlett a lot.
