Scott, I will miss you, your yellow bedroom and oven warm living room, your wit and sense of humor, and your impeccable aim for red high-heel shoes. I cherish your patience, the memories, insights and lessons. Thank you for touching my life: in learning about UI design, to look inside me, and to love myself completely.
My deepest sympathy to your sister.

Ah Scott will be missed by my daughter and me..my memories date back to Sherwin/Neifert our co-ed dorm at Knox College where we played endless bridge and hearts. Then, when we were both here in the SF bay area, he was so supportive of my daughter...the second wheelchair user to attend Knox. I loved running into him by my office in Oakland while he was on his way to a meeting or the book store. He was always on the outlook for new computer books. He will be missed by his Knox family.

The first time I met Scott was in high school. He was at the door of what was known as "The Little Theater" and was taking tickets for a movie-showing of "On The Waterfront". He told me at the door that to get in I needed to buy a ticket in order to "circumvent" him. I asked him what that meant and he replied "It is from the Latin; "vent" means "to get" and "circum" means "around". In other words we needed "to get around" him.
My girlfriend Cindy and I were very impressed.
Our deepest sympathy and prayers to his family.

I moved away from Palos in 1967 and hadn't seen Scott since then, but remember him well from our grade school days and freshman and sophomore years together. He always struck me as an exceptionally kind, decent person, which I suppose is just about the best thing one can say about someone else. I also remember, at least as a child, how his face would absolutely light up when something struck him as funny. It's interesting how the mind works: it's been 42 years since I last saw Scott, but when I received George Hamstra's email about Scott's passing the image immediately came to me of Scott's face crinkled up in laughter.

I recall playing chess with Scott in high school and was pleased that we could end in a draw. I used to go with his family to their cottage on a lake in Michigan and learned to ski there. Our paths had drifted apart by the time of his accident but I'd drop him a note now and then just to let him know he was on my mind. He was a good man.

My deepest condolences to the family on the loss of Scott - he was a good person. Scott and I occasionally corresponded over the years and I always looked forward to hearing from him. I have nothing but fond memories of him from grade school and high school. As a friend, I was always proud of his accomplishments - he was an incredible person and he will be missed by all who knew him.
