We have great memories of Scott and his many adventures. The many hours in the ice arena to the bright sunny days on his boat brought smiles to Scott. Always an optimist that life would get better.

Scott is my first cousin; our mothers were devoted sisters. Scott was a photo bug. Scott carried photos to share at a visit and take pictures of us at the visit and most remarkable...he'd follow the visit up with a card and reprints of the visit. That is old school charm and also strikes to how much Scott loved his family and friends. I loved him. Maureen Mc Farland Lloyd

I found Scott to be an approachable, engaging and open man; like others have said, with a charming smile. I, repeatedly, witnessed him offer genuine console and counsel to a cousin in need. That provided a model of honor.
Strength, Resolve and Blessings to his loved ones.

I have so many fun memories of your Dad, Nicole and Aaron. I won't forget practically carrying him out of my mother's wedding (It was our fault!), talking about boating together, and all of his hugs.
I'm so glad we had time with him. I wish you both strength and peace. with love, Kiara

Our deepest sympathy is extended to the family of Scott, a classmate of mine at St. Charles School in Burlington as well as of the Class of 1958 of Burlington High School. Scott was missed by all at the recent 50th reunion.

Dear Aaron and family:
Although I haven't seen Scott in over 10 years, I can still picture his huge smile and hear his hearty laugh. He was a wonderful person. My thoughts are with your family.

Though I only had the privilege of working with Scott while I was at The Travelers in the 1970's, he was someone that I regarded highly as mentor and an insurance professional with the highest level of expertise. Even after so many years, he was a person that I admired and thought of often.
My deepest sympathy to the family.

Dear Mary Ellen and family,
Scott will be missed by all. Our friendship goes back over 45 years. He was in our wedding almost 40 years ago. We enjoyed many good laughs and fun, especially with the cars...Scott could never have enough of them. Scott was very generous with his time and support to all. We'll miss his phone calls and good times. You are in our thoughts and prayers.
