It saddens me greatly to have to send this announcement about Scott McInturff.  He passed away today from complications of a heart attack.  Jeff Frazier's wife, Peggy, asked that I post this announcement to get word out.  Please keep his family and his friends in your thoughts and prayers as they go through this very difficult time.  Peggy said that she will let me know about arrangements so that I can post that infromation as well.

Please send prayers and good thoughts to Scott McInturff who is hospitalized at UT Hospital after having a heart attack.  Reports I am getting is that he is fighting for his life - please keep him in your thoughts and prayers.

Scott's family will be receiving friends this Thursday, January 29 from 6:00-8:00 in the Trinity Chapel at Smith's Funeral Home.
