My heart is so sad. I knew Scott through my ex-boyfriend Keith Garity. Scott was a kind and sweet person. When you were around Scott it was never a dull moment and the moments were always filled with laughter. I am still in shock over this. My prayers are with the Higby family and all of his dear friends. God Bless
