Scott was a wonderful person who had a passion for life. Scott made everyone feel welcome when he was around. He was a great big brother who will never be forgotten, ever!

Scott used the Career Center at Santa Clara Adult Ed since 8/05. We enjoyed working with him and considered him to be a friend. So sorry to hear of his untimely death. Our sympathies are with you all.

I was so surprised and sorry to see Scotty's obituary in today's paper. I am very sorry that his life ended so abruptly and early. I worked with him for a couple of years at PowerTV and am very sorry for those that he has left behind.
