Scott Strong was not only my employer, he was my friend. I have known and worked for Scott for nearly 18 years. Words cannot describe the profound loss that I feel and have felt for days. I really would like people to know that Scott was one of the most intelligent, caring, generous and funniest people that I have ever known. Scott loved his family beyond words and they should know how extremely proud he always was of them. Scott was larger than life and will never be forgotten.
