I met Scott on the trip to Toronto for the Molson Canadian Rocks festival in 2003 also known as Sarsstock. We kept in touch for a number of years but as lives got busy we were unable to keep in touch,just finding out of his passing is proof of that. When I worked midnights around Detroit I could always count on Scott to play requests when requests weren't played all that often anymore. Rock on Scott,you turned bad times to good times with the right music playing in the background. I'm sure you're now hanging with the rest of the best in rock and roll heaven. R.I.P.

On behalf of (some of) the former WCSX promo team, I offer my sincerest condolences. May Scott rest in peace. I will always remember working with him at station events.
