Dear family of Scott,



My heart goes out to all of you. I just lost my brother to a glioblastoma multiforme brain tumor on 12/25/03. He also was very young and left behind 3 young children. I know exactly what you must be going through. My prayers are with all you through this very difficult time.

Met Scott last April and invited me to his class reunion. We emailed back and forth. Sweet guy and very sad to see his obituary in the paper.
