My deepest sympathy goes out to the entire family especially Ethyl. Scott was a big part of my life and helped me in many ways that I will forever be grateful for. I will remember him always and I am here for you Ethyl...you were a big part of my life too and I'll always love you. Scott was a wonderful guy and I believe he did alot of good things to help alot of people in this world and that means alot. May God help to ease the pain you are feeling and know he is with Jesus right now.

Love to all of you and have missed you all,
