Went all through high school with Scott. He and all his teammates have a lot of trophies at EHHS. Fun years. Sounds like he had a fabulous life. Prayers to his wife and children. Sorry to hear of his passing.

I have great memories of Scotty. My favorite was the Pick 6 interception to win the intramural flag football championship.
The Kerbel family will keep you all in our prayers.
All the Best
