To My Beloved Cousin Scott, You will be missed so greatly. I will surely miss your phone calls. You always kept me updated about our family tree which was so appreciated. You had an extremely warm heart and you spread love wherever you would go. Now that you're with your mother you can rest in peace. Rest In Peace Cuz!! Love You...
Knew Scott for about 40 years. Never once saw him when he was smiling and ready to talk Braves baseball with me. I'm gonna miss running into him in Walmart at least once a month lol. Praying for Randy, Red and the rest of the family.
We are so sorry to hear of Scott’s passing. I still remember him as a student in my class at Glen Alpine. He always made certain that he came and talked to me every time we happen to be at the same place. I will miss seeing and talking to him. You and your family are in our hearts, our thoughts, and our prayers.
