I worked with Scotty in three different buildings, where he was always known for his jokes and laughs (can't you still hear that unique laugh if you listen?) and his honesty and hard work. You could always tell that he was doing his job by the condition of the building. I was honored to know him. To his family, thanks for sharing Scotty with the rest of us.

Walter,
I will miss you! You were a 2nd dad to me and always will be. Your advice on life helped me grow. Loved our talks and all of the goofy jokes and riddles. My favorite was about the little bird. When I see you again you can tell me that joke as much as you want..

Love ya, Roni
