Karen, Carol Curson called to tell me of Scott's passimg. I wasn't able to get any onfo as to services until too late. It has been such a long time since I we had been together. I have many fond memories our friendship. Also Scott's skills sprucing up my house in Glendale before I moved to Friendship Village Sunset Hills, MO. It's hard to believe that I moved here 11 years ago.
My prayers go to you and the family.

I was sorry to hear of Scott's passing...he was his own person, yet always friendly, very accomodating, and had a great community spirit. He genuinely cared.
