I'm so sorry to hear this news! Scott was so kind and patient, answering my questions about what he was doing in the field next to our house. He even let us ride in the combine! We always loved seeing him working - though he had a lot to do, he never hesitated to wave, smile and stop and chat. He will be missed!
