Scott and Carmi were great friends and great neighbors. Scott and I spent a lot of time adding parts to our Harley Davidsons. We went on a 10 day trip that included Yellowstone national park. Emily had a great time. Scott was always super sweet to Emily. Spent a lot of Friday nights at the barbecue joint testing new cocktails, those memories can never be mimicked. Have fun in Gods house. See you when I get their love to Scotts family, children and grandchildren.

Scott, Gary and I when we were kids we would do everything together. Scott lived halfway down the street and I lived at the bottom of the street and Gary lived at the top and we were all the same age. We did many many things together as kids, and like many people things kind of drifted away from us when we got older, but he was always special to me and always will be rest in peace buddy. ❤❤❤
