I was shocked to see the notice about Scott. I have known and worked with Scott for many, many years. He was always a treat to be around and I could count on him for everything. I know that he will be missed by many and I hope that his family is doing well. Thank you Scott for always being there.

Scott was also a skating friend of mine with an awesome sense of humor and a fast pair of skates. In those days we called speed skates "wings". Scott, you have your wings on now. Enjoy and God Bless!

I have known Scotty most of my life 25+ years. He helped me through some of the toughest times and was always there whenever I needed him. Brian, Scott and I have been the best of friends since the moment we met and were called "The Three Musketeers of Sound". I will miss him but will never forget him. I love you Scotty.

I shared life with Scotty for the last 4 years and there are no words to express the emptiness I feel as I face each day without him. I miss his touch, his smile, his creativeness, generosity, and yes, even his sarcastic remarks. He was my partner and will live forever in my heart. I will love him until the day I take my last breath.

I skated at the rink in the 70's with Scott and went to High School with him too. Have a few pictures of him from back then, he was a good friend and sweet, gentle man.

Scott, I guess another wonderful angel was needed in heaven.

Scott, my friend, went to soon. he was always ready to help, never had to be asked. sometimes grumpy but it was never personal-just lots of hours helping out. you will be missed buddy.
