Scott was my brother from another mother think about him all the time to this day. I think about all the things we could have been doing had he still been alive. As soon as I met Scott we became fast Friends I think that was 1979. Many great adventures back in the day together. Robin and I always loved Scott and we'll miss him forever.!
