Thanks for the hugs we shared and the tears we cried. Thanks for being there by my side. Scott, THANK YOU for being YOU! As you look down upon us all, you can truly see just how much we all LOVE YOU! Life is nothing more than a series of MOMENTS, and THANK YOU for those MOMENTS!! I LOVE YOU and your big head, Shawn ‘Blocka’ Robinson.

I know where you are and what you are doin and I hope that you continue to look down on all of us. I will always remeber the fun you and me and amber and shawn had. The memories are wonderful cause no matter how I felt you always had me laughing and smiling. Keep an eye out for me and a smile on my face. Much love to you. To the family my thoughts and prayers are with you.
I remember so well Scotty running around and playing at your house. We had so much fun with him. Our thoughts and prayers are with you all as you go through this difficult time.
I lost touch with you Scott and was deeply saddened to find out you are no longer here. We had a lot of special times together that will live on in my memories. I know you are in a much better place than any of us are here on earth, but it still hurts that you are gone. I will miss you. I am so sorry for Scott’s family. I can only imagine how hard this is on you all.

to all who read this.Scott wasn’t a everyday man. He was Super human. I miss him everyday.Think of him lots. Hope to hug him again someday.
Scott- I will never forget your loving nature and free spirit. The memories of times we shared (many of them also shared with Colleen) will always remain close to my heart. I hope you two reunite in heaven and create much mischief. With all my love- Jess
Scotty,
Today it’s been one year! This past year has been the hardest ever. You have missed so much! I wish you could have been here. Things would be so different! You have a new nephew Kevin. I hate that he will never know you. Also trying to help Matthew remember you. There is not a day that goes by that I don’t think about you. Your pictures are everywhere. I hope that your sprit is also. I love you and miss you! Watch over all of us!
Your Sister
It’s been 5yrs, I have missed you so much. It’s so hard to believe that it’s been that long. There has not been a day that you have not been on my mind. Your nephews are getting so big, and I wish so bad that you could be here to see them. The way they act sometimes reminds me of us. I Love you, You will never be forgotten!
Little man is with you now!! Please take care of him, I will see you both one day! I love you & him!
