Yesterday I found this photo of my family. Scott took it in 1999. I thanked Scott "out loud" for always getting things just right. Then today, this notice. We love and miss you, dear friend. Geri, Corey and Larry. Gone, bit never forgotten.

Dear, talented, sweet friend. Scott, you will be missed even tough our friendship has been long distance since our relocations. Your beautiful photos of our wedding are framed throughout our home, there was no one who could capture our personalities like you did. What a shock to lose you so early in life. I know so many in CA who will remember you with love and a heavy heart.RIP until we meet again. Love, Geri and Larry Israel

Scott was a wonderful friend and we had many memories together over our years in LA. He was an amazing photographer, I treasure the pictures he gave me as a gift to this day. We vacationed together and laughed a lot. He was one of the good souls on this journey of life. I'm sad he left us. My deepest condolences to his family. Kurt Heisler

I worked with Scott in the mid 1990s in LA. He was a smart, funny and kind and a very talented photographer. I did not know that he had moved to Florida. Since I read his obituary in the LA Times, I have been beside myself with grief. Really a wreck. Rest In Peace my friend, gone way way too soon. You will be greatly missed.

Some friendships you just know will last forever, but then forever comes too soon. That´s what it was like for my friendship with Scott. We´ve been friends for over 30 years. We laughed, we cried, we shared our deepest secrets. We both loved taking little photography day trips together and enjoyed vacationing together to San Francisco, Virginia, & Washington D.C. Over the years we had the most fun at all of the Photo Impact shows! Scott was such a warm hearted guy. He loved photography, cooking & travel. The one thing he longed for, he sadly never found, and that was a life partner. I hope you are at peace Scott. I will never forget you, my dear friend. Love always, Cheryl
