Sadly, Uncle Wilson informed me of the tragic news about Scott. My thougts and prayers go out to Bob, Amy, and all of the family. I have so many memories of playing with Scott and Amy at Grandma Campbell's store when we were younger. Scott was always so energetic with a constant smile on his face. I know he was deeply loved and will be dearly missed. God bless-Christy (Campbell), Nathan, Campbell, and Marley Prenzlow

My thoughts are with your family. Scott was a tenant of mine at Cirrus House. I always enjoyed it when he would come in and talk with me. After he left he kept in touch with us and we were so looking forward to having him back. He had a big heart and will be missed.

My prayers are with your family at this time. Scott was one of the sweetest, kindest guys I ever met in school. I will always remember his gentle heart. He was always smiling and laughing in school, teasing and joking, never anything but kind. I will cherish those memories from middle school and high school with him.
