Scooter had the unique gift of always making you feel like time never passed. No matter how long it was since we saw each other last - he always made it feel like yesterday. High School, playing ball at Lawler's, and our boys playing ball together. A lot of good memories. My condolences to the family - rest in peace my friend.
