My thoughts are with your children and family. It's hard to understand why things like this happen to someone so young. I was lucky to have grown up with Scott and his brothers when we were kids in the west 7th area. My brother Son and dad (scott's uncle ken) are buried very near Scott and I take comfort knowing that they are together on the other side watching over us.

Hi Breanna & Dakota & Darla

I was glad to see you and I pray that the Lord Jesus Christ will put a peace beyond your understanding and a joy unspeakable in your heart . I pray that you will grow up to be mighty men and women of God and that you will focus on the positive things that come into your life so that you can encourage others in need and in times of trouble because youve been there yourself and that you know that the good Lord Jesus can take the bad things that happen and make us stronger. Allow Him to. Be Encouraged ,I Love You & God Bless you
