My heart is heavy and broken that you are no longer with us little brother. You made me laugh like no one else with your dry wit. I will love you forever!

Scot, there are a lot of us who will miss you brother. It’s been a long time since we’ve had drinks, but seeing your positive outlook and approach to life online always made me smile. Keep everybody fit up there.

I was great friends with Scot in high school and would routinely tell crazy stories from those years. He was truly one of a kind and will be sorely missed. Hearing of his passing was truly a shock and my deepest condolences to his family.

Dear Haidee and Mark,
We were very sorry to read of Scot’s passing. We met Scot many years ago when Anne was a part of the Foundry Street Gallery in Laurel, MD. I’m remembering his assorted pets that found their way into Anna and and Gary’s lives and, later, for the companionship and care that he gave to them, as well. I found, to my sorrow, that losing a sibling is like losing a bit of yourself, gradually you get used to their absence. I hope that memories bring comfort to you all.
With our condolences for the loss of your dad and your brother.

I was deeply saddened to hear of Scot’s passing. I had the pleasure of working out with him the last two years. He was an excellent trainer in every aspect!
Scot had a big heart, and a quick, delightful wit. He even took in my hermit crab, to share space with he and Casey’s kooky, beloved cat! I miss him.
My sincere condolences to Casey and his family.

Dear Family,
We were deeply saddened by the news of Scot’s passing. Scot worked with us for several years to improve our physical condition. We looked forward to our weekly sessions with Scot. He developed a different program for us at each visit. Scot was extremely personable, always cheerful and encouraging. He will be sorely missed. We are praying for Scot and your family. May he rest in peace.

Like others, I attended high school with Scot. He was always an easy going guy with a big (but sometimes devious) smile. I’m sorry to hear of his passing, and he will definitely be missed.

So, called the boy after sending a text. His phone was shut off. Had no idea I had just lost another brother.
He was one of ( our personal joke) the lost boys. Peter pans lost boys.
We all lived on a place called the ranch in the early 2000’s. He rode a Harley Davidson Buell. He loved it, because it was weird. I had a cabin in the hill, and my driveway looked like the Matterhorn. He would come flying up the driveway, pretend to crash, and I would come running out of my cabin, beer in hand, laughing, to save the victim.
I hope anyone who reads this is smiling. Brother, you will truly be missed, you were the best of all of us. Wish we could have got in that last ride.
