Prayers and thoughts to the family. Scott was a unique soul that made the best of everything. Rest in Peace cousin. Love ya
Thank you Tonya for all that you did for Him. Love you
I will always remember the first time that you put glasses on and the way the world just appeared for you. There was such a smile on your face. I know from that point on there were times that the same world punched you in the face. You will always be that little boy who wanted to be a preacher, a lover and a bull fighter. Love you and miss you so much. Dad
Scott was my childhood best friend. He was my first boyfriend in the 1st grade. His family was my family. His loss struck me very hard but I think mostly because of how important his entire family was to me… and to see now how much it had grown and how many more people were so much more directly affected. My heart and love goes out to everyone I still know and those I don´t. Peace be with you. It was such a nice service. Thank you so much for the amazing quality live stream. It made it very real for me. Seeing the family in the first two rows… all I wanted to do was to hold your hands and cry with you. I hope this day continues to be one of so many memories and filled with comfort from those you love and love you. Always in my heart, Ginny Wrightsman Bartosik
You have our love, prayers, condolences 💐, sympathy ❤️🩹 Rest Easy
