About 2 or 3 wks after Sarah passed I called Scott to see if I could do anything at all to help out. Like make some food to bring over or anything. We had a wonderful heart to heart talk about so many things, but mainly about how he was so worried about Angie and how much he loved her. We talked for at least an hour. I remember after hanging up with him that warm, cozy feeling of pride and love. I was so proud that he was a part of our family. He could somehow make everyone feel loved and appreciated. He was such a good person. He made everyone feel like they mattered. I thank God to this day that we had that heart to heart talk. He was a great cousin and an overall good man. I’m still so proud that we were related. Last week I was thinking about him and when I opened my phone to make a call, my phone opened up to his phone number, as if he was letting me know that he’s fine. I know he’s an Angel dancing with the angels and I know when I die, I’ll see him there. The Irish never say goodbye when someone leaves us, we say, See you later. I know I will see him later and look forward to it. My condolences to Angie and the rest of the family. Please, know that if any of yall need anything, that I’m here for you. I love y’all and I’m sad that the world lost a great man. He’s happier now than we’ll ever be here. I love and miss you, Scotty. I’ll see you later

Craig and I have just learned about Scott's passing. Our hearts go out to Angela and his precious family. Words cannot express our sadness. Scott was one of a kind and uplifting to everyone he knew.

I’ll miss your beautiful smile and those baby blues, but I’ll miss your kind heart the most. Our last conversation we had made me so proud to call you my family. Such a great man that shared how much he loved his wife and would never do anything to hurt her or his children, at any cost. I’m going to miss your great sense of humor and your respect for women, in general. I’m sure you and Sarah are dancing as Angels. I know it sounds crazy, but you’re better off now than the rest of us, but you’re sure will be missed here on earth. Rest in Peace, Cousin. I’ll see you when Jesus calls.

Just hearing about Scott. I'm so sorry for the loss of him. I renewable him as a devoted softball dad who loved his family and put them above himself. May the peace of God be with you all as you grieve and wait to reunite one day.

I am shocked and very saddened by the loss of my friend Scott. We grew up in the same neighborhood in Bucktown.We were classmates from grammar school through high school as well. It was always awesome to reconnect and share memories at the Haynes reunions. We exchanged phone numbers after the last reunion and we talked for about 2 hours. That’s when I learned that Scott had definitely found the Lord! RIP MY FRIEND 🙏

Scotty and I grew up together and got in a lot of mischief together. I had moved away and just recently reconnected. I’m so sad that there wasn’t more time. I’m really gonna miss you buddy.

Scott was not only a friend from school but we were fortunate to grow up in the same town “Bucktown” where we were all like family. It has been great being able to catch up at our reunions to reminisce on our childhood. You will be missed and I pray your family to find comfort

This is such a tragedy. Scott was an amazing person. He always had a smile and kind words for everyone. It's been years since he, Angela and I have seen each other but the impact they had on my life will never be forgotten. Sleep peacefully Scott and when the Lord returns we will see each other again. 😔

So sorry to hear of Scott’s passing. Grateful we were able to see him at our Haynes Reunion just this past September. He will be remembered with fondness. Angela, I’m sure I can speak for all of us from Haynes, our thoughts and prayers are with you.

Scott was one of the first people I met back in middle school when I moved to NOLA. He became one of my best friends. I will miss him deeply!! 🙏🏽❤️
