I am sorry for your loss. I drove with Scott at Gateway, I enjoyed all my encounters with Scott, usually starting with a big friendly smile from Scott, I know this is a sad time for the family, but cherish his memory
Teresa, so sorry for your loss. Scott always had a smile on his face and so helpful to everyone. I remember him when he was involved in the car care ministry and met so many needs there. I pray that God brings you and your family great comfort and peace knowing he is in the presence of our loving God and Father.
Scott was one of the very first people to welcome me to this neighborhood 11 years ago. He was always good for a laugh—from the toes!—always smiling, and always maintaining a positive attitude no matter what. He walked often throughout the day, and many times we ended up going the same way for a bit. I truly enjoyed our conversations.
He has left a hole in Shorewood Addition that cannot be filled, and I will miss him deeply.
Teresa, as I’ve told you many times before—you are the bravest woman I know, and I respect you so very much. My heart hurts for you all.
In the late 1970’s Scott and his father Ted took me deer hunting at the family farm in Warrens. I was able to get a deer and Scott allowed me as a teen to drive his new Ford Bronco. I have always had good memories of him and how kindly he treated me. I am sorry for your loss and wish his family peace from God.
Theresa, Chris, and Amanda, though time and life have drawn us apart we have never forgotten your family and the joy in worshipping andserving the Lord with you. We’ve often shared the car care ministry Scott helped to start fondly with others over the years as a practical example of Roman 12:3-9 I (Eric) was always grateful for Scott sharing his testimony to Crossfire Youth back in the day . so many other ways you opened your home in hospitality. praise God for the witness. thoughts and prayers in your grieving but rejoicing and looking forward to the day to meet up with Scott again in glory. love Eric and Melanie Mattie
I am sorry for the sadness, and sense of terrible loss you and your family must be enduring. I wanted to let you know that I am keeping you in my prayers. May God bless you with comfort and his grace.
