Learning of Scott's death has shocked me beyond measure. I have so many fond memories of him, starting in junior high and lasting for more than two decades. I am so sorry to learn of his death. He was a good friend. I hope you are finding some measure of comfort as the days past by.

Words seem so inadquate at timnes like these, however it is my wish that you can find comfort and peace (in time) and that your special memories of days gone by will allow your hearts to cherish your Scott.

Blessings to all,

Dear Lou, Teri, and Jana, So very sorry to hear of your loss. I still see him as a little boy across the street. I hadn't seen him in a very long time. I am glad you all have each other, I know how your hearts must be hurting right now.

I wish I could see you guys, but I am in New Jersey now, and I will just keep you in my thoughts and prayers. God Bless you, Debi (Furrow) King
