Melanie and I grew up with Scott. He lived directly between our houses, Mel living on 11th and I living on 8th. I remember Mel coming to my house one day with a cast on her arm and me asking what happened and Mel telling me "Scott and I were playing
kung-fu and Scott tried to flip me." We always kept the pact of not telling.. changing the story to Mel fell out of a tree.
Loosing Scott is a huge loss, Scott was a warm, gentle, giving soul and will forever be missed, but he will always be in our childhood memories

We love and miss you Scott,
Dawn Cecil & Melanie Moore

Dear Theresa and Family
Words cannot express how sorry we are to hear of Scott’s passing. Our deepest sympathy and prayers are with you, your daughter, and your family. Scott is one of the best persons to ever walk the earth. He was a stranger to no one, a hard worker who loved life and his family, was always willing to help anyone, and a good friend to all who knew him. May there be comfort in knowing that someone so special will never be forgotten. The Lawler’s have always thought of him as family and will sadly miss him.
Rest in peace my brother
Kindest Regards and Deepest Sympathy

Words cannot describe the void we all feel in our lives. Scott touched each and every one of us in a special way. As I talked to those who knew Scott the same words were repeated- he was always there to help; he was a big teddy bear; he was proud of everything he did and you couldn’t help but share in his pride. His laughter was contagious. His smile was infectious. Scott was a great man in every way.
Scott’s greatest passion was fishing. He would call and tell us about his latest catch with so much enthusiasm and detail it was as if you were there. He’s catching all the big ones now.
Scott wore his heart on his sleeve. We know how much he loved each and every one of us and that he would not want us grieving for him but celebrating the time that we did have with him and knowing tht his love is still with us.
We love you Scott and miss you.
Say “Hi!” to Pop-Pop and Nana for us.

To my dearest family, some things I'd like to say...
but first of all, to let you know, that I arrived okay.
I'm writing this from heaven. Here I dwell with God above.
Here, there's no more tears of sadness; here is just eternal love.

Please do not be unhappy just because I'm out of sight.
Remember that I'm with you every morning, noon and night.
That day I had to leave you when my life on earth was through,
God picked me up and hugged me and He said, "I welcome you."

It's good to have you back again; you were missed while you were gone.
As for your dearest family, they'll be here later on.
I need you here badly; you're part of my plan.
There's so much that we have to do, to help our mortal man.

God gave me a list of things, that he wished for me to do.
And foremost on the list, was to watch and care for you.
And when you lie in bed at night, the day's chores put to flight.
God and I are closest to you....in the middle of the night.

When you think of my life on earth, and all those loving years
because you are only human, they are bound to bring you tears.
But do not be afraid to cry; it does relieve the pain.
Remember there would be no flowers, unless there was some rain.

I wish that I could tell you all that God has planned.
But if I were to tell you, you wouldn't understand.
But one thing is for certain, though my life on earth is o'er.
I'm closer to you now, than I ever was before.

There are many rocky roads ahead of you and many hills to climb;
but together we can do it by taking one day at a time.
It was always my philosophy and I'd like it for you too...
that as you give unto the world, the world will give to you.

If you can help somebody who's in sorrow and pain,
then you can say to God at night......"My day was not in vain."
And now I am contented....that my life has been worthwhile,
knowing as I passed along the way, I made somebody smile.

So if you meet somebody who is sad and feeling low,
just lend a hand to pick him up, as on your way you go.
When you're walking down the street, and you've got me on your mind;
I'm walking in your footsteps only half a step behind.

And when it's time for you to go.... from that body to be free,
remember you're not going.....you're coming here to me.

My dear cousin Scott. Spending so much time with the Robins family growing up holds some of the best memories and times in my life. Those were the times which formed a great deal of who I am today. I always looked up to my older cousins who treated me with love and kindness.
Scott in so many ways was much like my incredible grandfather 'pop pop' - kind, patient and talented. Loosing Scott is such a loss to this earth, it breaks my heart.

You, your family and friends are in our prayers. Your in a much better place although that's hard for many to understand. May we all be reunited again one day. Until then, FISH ON!!

I'll never forget Scott, we went to school together since 7th grade. I remember his crazy mowhawk in 10th grade and he was actually kicked out of class for it, he just smiled, that awesome smile and walked out of the classroom. I remember our bowling alley days, skipping school and hanging by the "swing" in Ridley Park. Lots of fun and laughs. Scott's smile is engraved in my memory. Rest in peace Scott..you are a hero.

Although I did not know Scott well, I had the pleasure of working along side him on many different jobs as a carpenter. In his presence I found many qualities. He was indeed a big bear of a man. However, when you spoke with him, you quickly realized that his heart was closer to that of a Teddy rather than a Grizzly. Scott loved to tell stories and had a seemingly endless book of them that never failed to entertain and humor everyone. He was not only quick in wit but also generosity. When a good catch came his way he nearly begged to bring in a large sample. How many people in the construction business can brag about fresh tuna sushi for lunch? Fishing, his family and friends, his Monte Carlo, his old Buick, he was nearly equally proud of all these. Yet this is from someone who only knew him casually. God speed Scott. My prayers are with you and your family.

You were the little brother I never had. The one Woody and I used to pick on til you got too big to pick on, then you still let us pick on you. The kid Mr. Di Matteo took up in his WWII aeroplane because you were a good kid that worked hard. I remember how excited you were to go live in Arizona and work with your brother. You coming back from Az. with your first pick-up truck and all the stories that came with it. Hanging out with the metal bands you liked so much with Donie, Jimmy, Mark & George. How bad you wanted that job pipe fitiing and how good you were at it. Seeing you fall in love with Teresa and knowing that was it and how happy Colleen and I were for you guys. You filled your life with everything you loved and made us all smile. You were a hand when I needed one and friend for as long as I can remember. I'm gonna miss you Duma, my buddy.

You were the little brother I never had that me and Woody used to pick on. Then you grew to six foot six and we still picked on you because you let us. You were a gentle giant, a good friend with a hand to lend at a moments notice. I told you to buy that house when you had the chance when you aksed my for my advice. Took you to your first NASCAR race to see Dale Sr at Pocono.I remember how Mr DiMatteo took you up in that old WWII airplane he had because you were a good kid. How excited you were to leave for Arizona and go work with Woody. Your first pick-up truck that you brought home from Arizona and all the stories that went with it. I remember how you were stunned and amazed by Teresa and made up your mind that she was it, the one, and how happy Colleen and I were for you guys. I'm gonna miss you Duma more than these words can ever say.
