Condolences to the Family

I am so sorry to learn of Scott’s death. He was a good neighbor and a blessing to the neighborhood. He will certainly be missed. Just having the opportunity to greet each other in our coming and going gave me a sense of belonging here in my new home. It is so sad that his passing is during this time of year and season. My prayers ascend for Barb and all the family, May there be amid the grief and sorrow times of comfort and peace. And my the memories you share be an ongoing remembrance that gives you smiles and soulful tears. God bless you.

Pat and Ed~
A beautiful tribute your son. I only knew the little boy and regret never knowing the man. I know he faced many health challenges in his short life, but he is once again, the little boy I knew -happy and pain-free.
My deepest condolences to your family.

Cousins once removed and my godchild, Scott. I loved his smile and our conversations. He faced his challenges and survived many with courage.  But ultimately a higher power took him home. He will be remembered forever and hold a special place in our hearts. Rest in peace.
