  1. We are very sorry to hear about your loss and you are in our prayers. I am Dee Dee sister in law.

  2. Scotty, I am going to try to use this to try to get my emotions out there a little to you. Man, I miss you so much. I never knew that someone could make such an impact on my life like you have. Your friendliness & open heart made me feel like you should have been like the uncle or brother that I never had. You weren’t old enough to be my dad, so I didn’t want to say that. But you just kicked ass and I am so happy that I had the chance to meet you in this life. You will always hold a special place in my heart and I have thanked God every day for the past week, that I took the chance to always tell you how much I cared and appreciated you. I never tell anyone that, but for some reason, I knew that you would appreciate it. You always made me laugh, right in the gut-and I am grateful for the memories that I have of you. Bryan & I will be coming to NC as soon as his truck will make it – OK , maybe we will rent a car. I miss you so much & I love you and hope you are keeping your promise & you’re going to still take care of me from up there with God. I will never forget your reaction with the job offer you gave me and even better you saying, ‘Hell NO I ain’t askin your boyfriend if it’s okay for you to work at the strip club!’ I miss you so much. Your dad does too, and I stop by to check on him every day I’m up there to see if he needs anything. Anything but poker. I love you. Thank you for everything.

  4. I am so sorry for your loss. There is nothing so heart-wrenching as lossing a child. We lost our Jeff 3 years ago. It is not easy !

    • Hi Karie not sure if your Christophers mother but if you are we have met before. Id like to ask do you have any pictures of Scotty I’d be forever greatful if you could share them w me? I miss him dearly and I think pictures would help. My email is Karma34690@gmail.com and my fb is Brandy Bear in Bronson Fl
      You were always so kind when we would come over and I always respected you and appreciated it!

  5. Scotty,
    I will forever carry you with me. The first time we meet, I knew that we would be friends for life. I always enjoyed the times we shared fishing, hanging out and hearing you talk about your children. I know how much they both meant to you as well as how much you loved them. I am thankful to have known you and you meant the world to Destiny and I. I still have not come to terms with your absence but I take peace in knowing that I will one day see you again. I miss you and love you, always!!! Rest in Peace, my dearest friend.
    Love,
    Barbie and Destiny

  6. Scotty i dont even know where to begin. You changed my life so much. You made me realize what was best for me and to follow my dreams. I still cant believe that one minute you were here and now you are gone. I know hat we will be seeing each other again someday soon but until that day comes you will be watching over all of us. I miss you so much and will never forget you. You will always be in my heart. I LOVE YOU SCOTTY!

  7. Wow Scott it’s been 15 years since we lost you and it still hurts like it just happened! I named my son after you Dominic Andrew he’s only 10 yrs old but that was important to me that you lived on somehow some way! The best times in my life were with you on your airboat just us cruising in the swamps and I remember you asked me w a smile “so do you love me yet?” And of course I did and still do! I loved chilling in your garage while you worked on everyone’s vehicles bc that was who you were, you would help your friends whether they could pay ya or not. You were a good man! We were also trouble together bc we loved bar fights and always came out ontop HAHA it didn’t matter if it was just us 2 against 15 ppl we knew we’d be okay and laughing about it later. Good lord haha! Well times have changed and I’m a sober mother of 2 beautiful children with a beautiful home, wonderful old man and amazing life… I wish you were still here for me to call and check up on though. I wish I had taken pictures of us but I dont even have 1 single photo of you and it hurts, it hurts so bad! If anyone has a photo please email me Karma34690@gmail.com or fb BrandyBear in Bronson Fl. I would be so appreciative to have a photo of this man who changed me as a person for the better! I love you Scotty please give my mom a hug she’s in heaven with you now ( shes the one who introduced you to me, she was slick she had you come “work on my van” lol ). I love YOU AND MISS YOU! It was always YOU no matter what but you knew that I know it was the same for you! XoxoxoXXX BEST FRIENDS ALWAYS AND FOREVER!
