Ryan, Rachel, Amie, Mollie & Caroline,
The memories that I've had with Scott are fond, warm and wonderfully funny. Scott brought that out with everyone that knew him.
The tough part is finding those right words to say just how fortunate everyone was to have known and shared time with him.
God bless you all and feel welcome to lean on us.

Rachel, Mollie, Ryan, Amie and Caroline, we are so sorry for your loss. We have known Scott from the early England days 40 years ago. Scotts wit, intellect and laugh were endearing and we will treasure all our times with him. We enjoyed several hikes and lunches/ wine tastings with him over the past year and had plans for many more and other travels. We were stunned and shocked and I am sure you all are still in disbelief. May the memories, endearing traits and love he had for you live with you forever. Love, Donna and Steve Naylor
