As another year approaches us, I find sweet wonderful memories of you flooding my heart today. You are never far away, but today more prominent. I know you were waiting on mother as she arrived and that you took joy in showing her around. Missing you so very very much....Mama

I can't believe it's been 11 years since I've seen your lovely face. I still miss you every single day. I love you so much. Logan put a picture a picture I had of you and her on the fridge in a frame in her room a few days ago. She auditioned for Douglas Anderson School of the Arts and made it in!!! I know you are proud of her. Her audition was on my Grandfathers birthay so we know all of you up there were with her. You'd be so proud of the way she turned out. I know you see her.
Always,
Mrs. Ivory

Today I learned of your passing and the pain is unspeakeable. Ten years have past and I find myself angry that I never searched long or hard enough for you. We were always together in middle school and high school.
Scotty, my kids have heard stories of out escapades. Their favorite story is the night that you scared the bejesus out if me...when I was sitting in the front room reading a scary book and you banged on the window. The stories are countless.

So today on my birthday I say...

"I will always love you. You are always with me. I will never forget you. My longest and best friend."

Holly Berg

April 20, 2012

To the family..I went to school with Scott and just found out through another friend about his passing and it makes me very sad..Scott was such a sweet friend to me in school and im so sorry to hear this...

Traci Woolard

April 20, 2012

I'm not sure what to say. I've been looking for an old friend off and on for many years and always struck out. I was determined that I WOULD find him...I've missed his friendship since I moved. I'm not 100% sure that this is him...mainly because I don't want it to be. Unfortunately, after reading 66pgs, I'm pretty certain you are him. You were always the highlight of my day at school and often the only way I could get through certain classes. I would give anything to be able to see you again and let you know some of the amazing things I've been blessed to be a part of. You've never been too far from my thoughts and memories. I know that I will see you again one day.

Ivey Lewicki

Hi Scottie,
Can't believe 10 years has passed. Doesn't seem like it's been that long. Laughed the other day thinking about your silly antics. Think about you a lot.
Love,
Ivey

March 1, 2012

I don't know how I have lived and breathed, Without you being here.
You were taken way to early, and the pain in my heart is still so great
Yet I know your spirit is free. I listen for the sound of your voice,and long for a great big hug, I cannot hear and I cannot feel, But you are in my thoughts everyday, so I know you did not go away, I know that you are near. Your life here on earth was way to brief, But where you are is Eternity !

10 long years without you. Loving you.

I wish Heaven had a phone so I could hear your voice again.. I thought of you today, but that is nothing new. I thought about you yesterday, and days before that too. I think of you in silence, I often speak your name. All I have are memories and a picture in a frame. Your memory is a keepsake, from which I'll never part. God has you in his arms.. I have you in my heart.

You’ve just walked on ahead of me And I’ve got to understand You must release the ones you love And let go of their hand. I try and cope the best I can But I’m missing you so much If I could only see you And once more feel your touch. Yes, you’ve just walked on ahead of me Don’t worry I’ll be fine But now and ...then... I swear I feel Your hand slip into mine....
Love you, Mama

Hey Baby,

Just read Ivey's post and although I am your mother and my heart still aches for you, I know that your closet friends hearts ache also. I pray that God will be with us through the holidays as this is some of the hardest times for this family to be without you. We love you Scott and miss you everyday. You are still my joy! Love Mama

Hi Buddy,

I'm sittin' here looking at your picture. It's you holding Logan when she was little. She's 11 now Scottie. I know you can see us but I wish she still had you to teach her all about GUCCI and CHANEL. After all these years, she still remembers you and the names you called her. I make sure she remembers. Jeremy just turned 5 years old. He is so smart and sweet. Him, Logan and all 4 of the Sams kids go to Blessed Trinity Catholic School. All the cousins are together. Anywho, just was missing you and thought I'd write.
Love you always,
Ivory

Well it has been a long time but I think of you all the time. Today I heard the Dave Matthews band and I remember emailing the lyrics back and forth at Hamilton and doing our own adjustments to them... :) And of course the ever faithful Backstreet Boys.
I hope to see you again one day Scott !!!! (Scotia :))
MIss you always !!!!!!!

Well my love, Alexis walked the walk Monday and now she is officially a young lady waiting for a whole new world to open up for her. You would have been as proud as we were. Her Open House just went beautifully, but we missed your friends that we invited to come. They have watched her grow up and we wanted them to participate, but they couldn't make it. Maybe they will send her a card or call her. Well, just wanted to say hello and let you know what is going on. I love you. Until the next time..............Mama

Ivey Lewicki

Hello Dahling!

We will be going to Alexis' graduation party next weekend. Be with her as she transends into adulthood. This is such a major time in her life. I know you'll look over her.

Hey Baby,

It was good to see that Mark has come back to visit with you. I know that he has missed you very much and that it hurts him to come here.

Merry Christmas Scottie! We miss you so much. Jimmy and I laugh so hard at the fond memories that you left us with. I guess that's why God gave them to us! I also guess that's why God gave YOU to us. You will always make me laugh! I thought as time went by that I would at least not feel the hurt in my heart as badly...but I still do...especially during the holidays.
I love and miss you turribly!

Hey Baby,

Well a lot has happened since the last time I wrote to you. Another year in my life has past, Thanksgiving has come and gone and I am working on Christmas. Paul got laid off today. What a time to get laid off. But that's life! Maybe you could send us and Angel that could help him find a job. Well enough for now. Just a little depressed and had to talk it out. I love you Baby Boy!

Hey You,

I miss you. We had a "clean-up" done on our computer the other day and we lost our bookmarked favorites. I was about to faint when I couldn't locate your Guestbook. I emailed Mamma Amey and she sent it to me so here I am! Just wanted to say I love ya much! It was cool to see Robert Bishop's name recently on here. I remember when he was a Rep at Hamilton and gave me a message to call a customer back. He wrote "Elle Fant" for the customers name and when I called the # he gave me, it was the Jax Zoo and I asked to speak with "Elle Fant." He also had me call the Chanel store and ask for Coco. I love those memories! We all had so much fun! I'll close for now.

My Dearest Scott,

You know it will soon be 6 years since you went away, but it doesn't seem that long ago. You are still so much a part of this family. You are mentioned all the time. John called me last night and we had a very good talk. He never fails to call on holidays and my birthday. He is such a darling. Thank you for him. I know the promise that you and he made to one another about your moms and just wanted you to know that he is keeping up with his end of the bargain. Well, I will go for now. It is time for me to do some chores around here. I love you and miss you very much.

July 25, 2007

Happy birthday Scottie! I have been very consumed with a heavy life lately. There has been a lot going on and I have not shown up to functions that I normally would have. I miss Mama Amey and the family but have had a very tough year with a lot of obstacles and haven't felt like celebrating. Don't get me wrong, the Lewicki's are holding strong as a family, but we've had a lot of heartache and loss this year and some friends who are having a hard time need us right now. You know you always said I took in all the "strays." I can't help it. With all my brashness, I do have a tender place in my little ole heart!!! Anyway, Tammy Faye Messner is up there with you now. I know you are debating beauty products with her at this moment. I love you and think about you all the time. I know I'm a bit of a "guestbook hawg," but I like to leave you messages.
Happy Burfff-day,

Happy Birthday to you. Hope you have had a wonderful day. Shot for Scott, was a huge success this year. Lots of people here, but we missed Miss Ivey. She didn't get to make it for some reason or the other. Maybe next year. I love you sweetie. I cooked your favorite cake for your birthday and we gobbled it all up. Even Jamey had some and loved it. Miss and love you bunches my dear. Have a good one!! Mama

Hi Scottie,

As you no doubt know, Chris Hook is up there with you now. Jacklyn and Chris Sams said some wonderful things about him today at his funeral. They have such brave and huge hearts, and always know just what to say and how to say it. Show Chris around, and tell him, Gabba G, Gabba Y, and all of our departed loved ones that we miss them and will see you all one day.

Well Son, I celebrated another birthday for you without you. Hope you enjoy your new flowers for your birthday. Ricardo, Tina and Uncle Paul came over.

May 9, 2006

Son, I miss you so much. I sit here everyday and think of you. I think of the good times we shared and the rough times too. I think about how you would tell me that you would never live to see 30 years of age and I wonder how you knew that. I have asked God Why, a million times and I still have no answer. You were so full of life and love for everyone. You had a smile that would win any heart. You had a goodness about you that enriched peoples lives. My heart still yearns to see your face and that smile. My arms still yearn to hold you. You are still my Baby Boy. I miss you so much. But I know that I will get to stroll over heaven with you some day. And that is why I can take your leaving, is knowing that I will get to see you again. I love you so much.

Mama

Well My Love, it has been 4 years since you went away. It doesn't seem that long and yet it seems like an eternity. But I know that you are not so far away, for i see your smile in the sunshine and hear your laughter in the wind. I feel your presence gently like a summer rain. Know my son, that you are dearly missed and that you are thought about every single day, all throughout the day and that you are loved so very much. Without you, I just keep on keeping on. Loving you until the end.

Mama

February 8, 2006

Today is a lonely day, sitting here thinking of you. It is really hard sometimes without you here. It is especially hard now that I can't work. At least work kept me going. Paul is at work and the girls are in school and I never go anywhere. No one comes over anymore or calls to see how I am doing. Its just lonely, you know. I wish you were here for me to talk with. Guess this will have to do. I miss your inspiration! I love you.
