Darling, I miss you so much. I will cherish the memories of all the good times that we had. We didn't live our lives in the traditional sense, but you were and always will be my family. I loved you for 24 years and you will always live in my heart. I will find happiness in our son and try to guide him to be the man that you always wanted him to be. I love you!

Becky,
I am so sorry to hear of your loss. And your son, he must be devastated. My thoughts have been with you every day since I read the obituary in the paper. Unfortunately, I read it after the service; I definitely would have been there for you and your son. I can not imagine how painful this must be for you. I do not know the details of your loss, but I do know you, and it is because of this that I share your grief.

A shock wave went through my body when I read the email of Scott's passing. I was in Europe at the time and have just returned and regret that I was unable to attend his service.

I was very fond of Scott. He was an unique individual with a keen eye for investment management talent and the ability to assess something quickly and accurately.

More importantly to me was he was true to his friends. He was genuine, not pretentious and self-absorbed. He stuck by his friends.

I will miss our monthly phone calls about sports, fishing and golf.

There is definitely a place in heaven for Scott.

Scott, I had the privilege to work with you over a 4-year period and could not have asked for a better teacher. You were always genuine, good, caring and did not hesitate to help someone in any way that you could. Oh, how you adored your son and was looking forward to the day that you could enjoy a Florida home upon retirement. You will be remembered fondly and we are all better for having known you, Linda

To Scott's Family,

I know there is nothing that can be said in a short paragraph to appropriately account for one's fond remininces in a situation like this. I had the pleasure to work with Scott when he broke into the industry and I have enjoyed working with him and sharing stories and experiences ever since. He had a unique way of cutting through the "fluff" and getting to the heart of what made a manager tick. I will miss his perspective and insights but most of all I will miss his friendship. In an industry of acquaintances I always considered Scott a friend. Please accept my sincere condolences.

I remember Scott when he got hit by a car and broke his legs, I would go across the street and sit with him and keep him company.
My prayers are with the Family.

I know this must be a difficult time for all of you. I will keep your family in my thoughts and prayers.

With deepest sympathies,
