My grandfather, Scott, was always everyone´s comfort person. I noticed how when people had problems they would always go to Scott, and he would give them realistic advice. My grandfather was the realest person I knew but was also the most lovable person as well. He knew how to comfort people and be there for them regardless if they did him wrong in the past. He held no grudges and always forgave people because that was what the Bible told him to do. He and my granny were very Godly people which caused me to want to go to church with them as a kid. He always brought out the good in people. He taught me how to love people unconditionally even if they weren´t the best people at heart. A memory of mine was anytime I saw him as a kid I would end up falling asleep in his arms in his recliner. There´s so many pictures of his grandkids sleeping in his arms because he was our comfort person growing up. Scott was such a loving grandpa, husband, and father. He will forever and always be in our hearts and our spirits.
