Scott enjoyed visiting friends and family and often brought gifts and fresh produce to share. He also made time to keep in touch with people through regular phone calls, just to check in. Many people experienced his thoughtfulness throughout his life. Scott had greatly enjoyed spending the last few winters in sunny Arizona.

Rest in Peace my dear friend. Scott and I, along with 20 other kids in the summer between 4th and 5th grade, started drumming lessons. Out of 22 kids only Scott and I survived. Sometime during Junior High Bobbie moved from another town to Williston and joined our duo. I can still see that fair skin, freckled, red hair boy across the band room pounding on his practice pad. It was an instant crush. We stayed drummer friends all the way through high school. I even got up the nerve to ask him to the Rainbow formal. He said yes but then came down with the mumps.
Scott was full of life. Always on the go. He had such a wonderful sense of humor. The world just lost a wonderful man.
My condolences go out to Scott's siblings and their families. Someday, we'll meet again my friend.
