Love you Scottie Rip you will be missed
Praying for Scottie’s family. May God be with each one of you. I am sorry for your loss.
Sending heartfelt condolences to all the family. Scotty will be missed here, but his spirit will never go away. I meet him thru my son Austin, and he was the nicest fella. Always coming around checking on Austin and asking how we all was. Him and that scooter(green) machine…. Rip Scotty you gained wings to fly and no longer sick buddy.
It’s hard to believe that you’re really gone, I wish I would’ve told you how much I loved you & how some of my favorite memories growing up were staying at your dad’s & hanging out with you. I just thought for sure you’d be around a lot longer but that wasn’t in God’s plan. I’m gonna miss hearing your laugh & quick witted funny remarks. I hope you’re at peace & reunited with mamaw. I love you, punk.
I’m so sorry for your loss. Scotty and Emily are my friends and he was a good person. I didn’t even know that he was sick. I will keep you all in my prayers and if there is anything I can do for you all please let me know. Again I am so sorry.
