Scott Rezendes
February 26, 1966 - January 22, 2007

"I couldn't be sorrier for the loss of Scott. He was a great guy, and a truly brave man. His only flaw is that he was a Red Sox fan, but I was happy for him that he got to see the Sox and Patriots win. My prayers go out to his wife, children, family and friends, of which I am sure he has many-Joel Poltun"

"I became frieds with Scott back in college. We were part of a tight knit group of friends who shared many common interests. I can remember many times hanging with the boys, having a couple of beers, watching the Sox, and just loving every minute of it. Beyond just being a great friend who was always fun to be around, Scott is a person that I greatly admired. His confidence was re-assuring, his intelligence was insipiring, his compassion was comforting. As difficult as it is to do right now, with the pain of his loss so fresh, I know that one day all of us who were friends with Scott will be able to look back on our memories with him and smile. Scott enriched the lives of everyone he knew, and I'll be eternally grateful for having had the opportunity to call him my friend."

"Scott was the high point of all of our intractions with Northrop Grumman. Those of us at Hanscom AFB enjoyed his straighforward with a dash of humor personality. He is still with many of us as a wonderful memory."

"Hi Karen & Children, I know I am a stranger to you, but you are not one to me. I am the niece of Pam and Nick Casalanguida, I just wanted to take a minute to tell you how sorry I am for your loss. My aunt and uncle always speak very highly of Scott and his family. He is going to be missed greatly. Once again, I am terribly sorry to hear about your loss, and hope to meet you again. My condolences, Kelli J. Connors"

"Scott was my best friend. Scott had many friends; many of these friends would consider Scott and themselves great friends. This was Scott?s character; this was who Scott was - not just merely friends but something more, something on a higher level, like great or best friends. I can remember when I first met Scott. A quiet tenth grader in Mr. Trudeau?s eleventh grade trig class, Scott sat in front of me. Why he turned around and befriended me, I don?t know, but he is the reason my life is so rich with friends. He is the reason I call Nick, Mike, Eric, Barry, Pat, and Eric friends. He is the reason I call Glen, Steve, and John friends. We had countless good times together ? in Bellingham, down the Cape, nearly everywhere we happened to be. We were the greatest of beach volleyball partners, fierce competitors on the pong table, and he usually got the better of me on the golf course ? but not always. I will miss you, but you will never fade from my memory."

"Aloha, I worked with Scott on the BMC2 project in Florida. I had just retired from 32 years at ITT, decided to take my pension, and then go to work for NGC. One of my first meetings I attended was run by Scott. Here was this young cool guy leading a room full of engineers, and some weren't too happy to be assigned to the project because of the problems...but Scott handled them all in a very efficient and professional manner. I also noticed that we had the same tan briefcase...I got mine while stopped in the Dallas airport. Scott accepted my position as SW QA, and supported me in my efforts to make sure we followed the NGC process. When he had time, we would talk about travelling and our workouts...mine were Karate. When Scott left Florida, I would email him that I was praying for him whenever I saw the sunrise as I drove to work, and included some pictures of places my wife and I went to, e.g. Tuscany, Greece, Hawaii. My last email to him contained Carribean pictures. He seemed to enjoy my descriptions of our travels, and especially the massages we received at the beautiful spa in Tuscany. Scott said that he didn't get that type of massage treatment when he went to get massaged...no scented oils and soft Italian music. I will miss his smile and vibrancy for life. I pray that God's blessing and comfort be with you and your family. Rudy Pacarro"

"It is an honor for me to have called Scott a friend. We worked together on several projects at Northrop Grumman in Florida and no matter how long the hours, working weekends or whatever, he was always willing to help and had that characteristic smile on his face that I will remember him by - You will be missed! My sincerest condolences to his family and friends. Dave"

"Karen & Kids, We are so sorry for your loss. If there is anything we can do to help you through this difficult time please call us. God bless you and your children. Love Bill and Lynn"

"I was saddened to hear that after all the courage Scott showed in his struggles that he had succumbed to his illness. As a fellow worker on BMC2, know that we will miss him and his vitality. Larry"

"Sarah and Hunter, Some day in the future you will find yourself reading all the tributes to your dad. You will smile, you will laugh and you will cry. During that day, take some time to call your grandparents. They will have great stories to tell you. Keep them to an hour, they will tend to go on and on. Next call your aunts/uncles and cousins. They will tell you all the fun they had growing up with your dad. Next, talk to your mom and ask her for suggestions on which of your dads friends to call. We will knock your socks off. This will be the best day of your life. Love, John & Victoria"

"To Scott's Family, As we've all mourned through this past week with an incredible sense of loss and sorrow, it is with a sense of pride and thankfulness that I will remeber Scott and his love of life. There was no better way that this could have been evident than in the tribute to Scott's life that was displayed during his services. Young and old, local and distant, brief and tenured, social and professional, casual and deep - yes, all walks of life with their varied relationships to Scott expressed their gratitude for this great man. We know that words alone cannot ease the sorrow, and we pray that you know that we are all better off for having known Scott. Our prayers will always be with you all. Kevin & Shannon"

"We met a couple of times at family BBQ's at Scott's Aunt Sue and Uncle Roland's house but I'm sure you won't remember us......my Grandson; Colin would play for hours with Hunter while while my Granddaughter; Allison tagged along. We followed Scott's illness through all his ups and downs 'til we received news, this week, of his passing. May the strength and courage that's gotten you through these last couple of years continue to carry you forward. Keep putting one foot in front of the other and get to a place of healing one step at a time. Let the love of family and friends be your strength and let your memories be of the good times that you shared. In deepest sympathy,"

"I worked with Scott on BMC2 at Northrop Grumman. Rarely have I seen such dedication and devotion and always with a great sense of humor. I will miss him greatly. We have lost someone truelly special."

"Although I only worked with Scott over the past few years, he was one of the hardest workers I've ever had the pleasure to work for. His presense will truely be missed by all that had the pleasure to work with him and to know him. Our prayers and thoughts are with you and your family duing this time."

"I didn't know Scott all that well in High School but I do remember he always had a sunny dispostion. I found out about his passing from a friend at work, Alan Connors. My deapest sympathy goes out to your entire family."

"Karen, we will be keeping you and the kids in our thoughts and prayers. We only wish we have had a little more time to spend with you and Scott before he passed away. We are very sorry for the loss but we believe that you are strong to carry yourself and the kids through. We pray for you. Zie, Jenny, Amon, and Katchene."

"Karen, I am so sorry to hear of Scott's passing. I will never foget the time's we all spent together at your house in VA. Scott was always up for a game of pool. He was such a fun, sweet and thoughtful person. He will truly be missed by all and he touched many lives. My deepest sympathy to you, your children and family. Cindy, Taylor and McKenna Bates"

"Karen, Although I haven't kept in touch with you since Channel 3, I have always known how you and Scott were doing through Kelly and Kyle. Over the last couple of years I know it has been hard at times, but I have never really worried because I also knew how great your love and strength for Scott was. Thinking of you by his side has touched mine and my wife Anne's hearts. Our thoughts and prayers go with you and your family and combine with many others who are far away but always at your side. Take care and God bless."

"It was a joy working with Scott on BMC2. His presence, that smile was like sunshine wherever he went. I can't imagine how his family will miss him. My thoughts and prayers are with you. Naho, Bonnie"

"I never personally mey Scott, but I talked to him several times on the phone after I started working under him. Scott was always a very caring man who put other people's needs first. He was exremely intelligent and was alway willing to listen and offer advice. My prayers and condolences are with the entire Rezendes family."

"Karen and family, I can't tell you how sad I feel for your loss of Scott. I remember so many fun times we had when you were in Virginia and at Channel 3. I always did say you were the perfect couple and your friends have always loved you both very much. I like to remember Scott bantering with me and your other female friends and how under his male exterior was a kind and loving heart. He was a wonderful person and a great husband. You are an amazing woman and I know your strength was a great relief to Scott. I'll always remember him in my heart. Love Kelly"

"Dear George,Prudence,and family, Our deepest sympathy in the loss of your son Scott. I remember going to mom and dads house and seeing Scott playing in the yard with my brothers. He always had the cutest smile on his face. I still saw that same friendly smile on his picture. Our thoughts and prayers are with you. God Bless."

"Hi Karen and kids, You probably don't know me, but I'm Pam C. brother and I met you this summer at the ocean. I'm so very sorry about your husband and your dad, SCOTT was a great guy. HE WILL BE GREATLY MISSED BY ALL! GOD BLESS YOU ALL, YOUR IN MY PRAY'S!"

"I'm so sorry for you're loss karen, if theres anything i can do for you, let me know. Please give hugs to hunter and sarah for me. Love, Mandy"

"Scott was a great guy, such a great loss for our family. My thoughts and prayers are with you."

"We'll miss Scott at the office, both as co-worker and friend. Condolences to the entire Rezendes family."

"Scott was one of the most professional and hard working men I have know. Ethical, with a sense of humor and mission. Such rare combination in a rare person. I will miss him and all he represents."

"I went to High School with Scott and have many fond memories of him. He was truly a great guy who always had a smile on his face. My thoughts and prayers are with him and his family."

"Karen, I had the privilege of knowing and working with Scott for the last seven years. Over the last few difficult years, his determination and his spirit were an inspiration to us all and the stuff books are written about. I feel truly lucky to be able to call him my friend and will miss him dearly. My thoughts and prayers are with you, the children, and the rest of your family."

"Scott was a great guy and alot of fun to talk to at our family get togethers. He will be missed, our thoughts are prayers are with you."

"I always looked forward to seeing Scott at family events, he always made me laugh with his comments and observations. He had a great sense of humor and was fun to be around. A great husband and father, he will surely be missed. Love to all."

"I really got to know Scott when I started helping out with AOC WSI and BMC2 Project in 2005. I had earlier encounters with Scott when I joined INRI before ultimately becoming Northrop Grumman. I will miss the occasional discussions we had as we criscrossed this great nation and sharing a few moments suspended between. Respectfully, --kev rolfs"

"I started at INRI just after Scott and we shared an office. He was the first person I worked with off-site. I have used the skills he taught me almost daily since 1992. One could always count on Scott for good technical advice, good fellowship, and a good story."

"God be with you in this time of need. Scott and I worked together for the past three and a half years in Melbourne. He was a great person and coworker. We will all miss him."

"I had the pleasure to work with Scott at Northrop Grumman on the BMC2 capture and contract. He was the consummate team player, interested in doing the right thing by the customer, the team, the company, usually placing himself last in the pecking order. His deep technical knowledge was equally matched by his warm personality. When we spoke in Melbourne, FL the subject eventually made its way to Rhode Island my mother was born there, several relatives still live there, especially the beautiful Newport/Middleton area which he and I both love. Scott will truly be missed. My deepest condolences are offered to his wife, children, other family and friends. Sincerely, Tom Conway"

"My thoughts and prayers are with you at this time. You have lots a great memories and they will help you in the times to come. I enjoyed working with Scoot and will remember his smile and laugh."

"KAREN & FAMILY, NEVER KNOWING YOUR HUSBAND BUT READING HOW WONDERFUL AND SPECIAL A PERSON HE WAS,WE CAN ONLY SEND OUR DEEPEST SYMPATHY. I ONLY WISH THAT WE LIVED CLOSER SO THAT WE COULD BE OF SOME HELP TO YOU AT THIS MOST DIFFICULT TIME. YOUR IN OUR THOUGHTS AND PRAYERS. GOD BE WITH YOU."

"Karen, Charles & Ann and family, We remember meeting Scott for the first time at your wedding and to this day we remember a warm and kind individual that would do anything for his wife and later on his children. Please accept our prayers and condolences. You will continue to be in our thoughts and prayers. Love & God Bless, Ricky, Mary Billy & Adam McDermott"

"I had the priveledge to go to High School with Scott. I have very fond memories of him. He was a great friend, and I will miss him. He and I occasionally emailed, and from those emails, he was very proud of his family. My heart goes out for your loss, he was a great man."

"A terrific guy filled with honor, integrity, genuine concern for others, and a desire to improve situations. I will miss him greatly."

"Dear George and Prudence, I saw Scott playing street hockey many, many times. But, my fondest memory of him was when you moved to Marc Avenue and Nancy, Doug and Scott came to my door to see if my kids would come out to play. I can remember Scott being very small and all bundled up. I'll never forget that, it stayed in my mind. My deepest sympathy."

"Mrs. Rezendes and Family, You have my deepest sympathy in this time of sorrow. I worked with Scott briefly, and really enjoyed knowing him. My prayers are with you all. Take care and God Bless. Sincerely, Nari Kerr"

"Dear George, Prudence, Nancy & Doug I am so sorry for your loss. What a wonderful son, brother, husband and father Scott was. You will have his lovely memories as solace for your grief. Scott will live forever in your hearts and minds. Our prayers and thoughts are with you. Eileen Marston & Mike Burr"

"It?s been about two years since I last saw Scott. He was in good spirits and, as usual, funny. He never let an opportunity go by in which he couldn?t get some humor out of it. Of course that is one of the things that made us love Scott. The thing that most impressed everyone around him was his enthusiasm. He didn?t get bogged down in all of the mundane nuances that come along with life. His view of the goal, the light-at-the-end-of-the-tunnel, the ?big? picture is what drove him to excellence in his work. And seeing that in him is what drove all the rest of us. But most of all, Scott was a true human being. He was a devoted husband, a proud father, and a good friend. He was larger than life to everyone, but down to earth in all ways. He never forgot his roots, and he never forgot his friends. To Karen, Sarah, and Hunter we offer our most heartfelt condolences. You can be assured that as part of the INRI family, you will always people to turn to. Fair winds and following seas, my friend. Max and Jaqui Parker"

"I am so sorry to hear the sad news of Scotts passing. My heart goes out to you all at this tough time. God Bless"

"I am so sorry for your loss. Scott was a great friend to me when we were 25 years younger. My prayers go out to his parents, brother, sister, wife and children. He will be sadly missed. May you all be blessed with only happy memories of your lives with Scott."

"Scott was one of my first and closest friends when I moved down to Newport News, VA. I truly am thankful he was down there as he made it easier to leave family and friends, go to a place where I knew no one, and start a career and a life. I will always be thankful to him and his wife, Karen, for that. As time passed and he moved back to RI and I moved back to Philly, we still maintained a friendship. I always enjoyed being around Scott, he was just that kind of person. I can never remember a down time with him. Whenever he was around, things always seemed to be good, spirits always high. He was a true friend and someone who I will miss deeply. My condolences to Karen, his children and Scott's entire family. My love and prayers go out to you."

"Scott and I first met circa 1997 while I was a USAF major at ESC and he was INRI guy working on COP SYNC tools for TBMCS/GCCS - and we needed them for the first ever USAF experiment EFX98. I would always razz he and John F. about their software, but it was good natured ribbing and they were great. I joined NGC in Aug 2005 and Scott is large part of the reason I'm now in NGMS."

"I miss you so.... !!! Pam, wants to say thank you for being our friend. She trusted you so much! She is taking this really hard. My friend, you have shared so much with me. The tears, the laughs, dreams and the blessings of familyhood. We fought side by side in sports and life. We debated face to face with the same passion and always we did it with respect for one another. You kept me grounded so many times when I would get ahead of myself and you knew exactly when to push me when I was afraid to move forward remember the ski trip? you took away my poles so I would learn to ski. My god, you were the most stubborn person in my life. That made you tenacious, dedicated and driven. I admire you for that and so did all who knew you. And yes, I caught you dropping a few strokes through the years. The summer rentals we shared. Our kids had so much fun. Seems like yesterday... Rest now. We love you...Your family is safe. You are here with us. I will not foregt my promise!!! To all...Celebrate his life, laugh, cry and remember that laugh he had that could not hide his heart. Regards, Nick"

"Karen, I can?t find the words to describe how sorry I was to hear about Scott. I?ve known something wasn?t right for a long time, but I didn?t have the courage to ask either of you what was wrong. I guess I was hoping things weren?t as they seemed. My sincere condolences. God bless you and the kids. If there?s ever anything I can do for you, please let me know."

"Karen, You probably don't remember me, but I met you at your cousin Kathy's wedding in Buffalo. My mother was your Grandma Girlie's sister. I would like to offer my hearfelt condolences at this time of such a great loss in your life. I have heard from my counsins what a wonderful man your husband was and how much he is going to be missed by so many. May you find comfort in your memories. God Bless you and your children, Lanie"

"Dear Karen, Sarah, Hunter and the entire Rezendes Family, There are no adequate words to express our deepest sympathy for your tremendous loss. Scott fought a valiant battle and clearly made an impressive impact on so many people throughout his life based on the wonderful tributes that have been shared in this guest book. Our thoughts and prayers are with your family during this difficult time and in the days ahead. May you find comfort in your memories. With our friendship and love, Monte, Lisa, Arianna and Alek"

"With my deepest sympathy and love."

"Karen, Please know that you are in my thoughts and prayers. I know Scott will always be with you. I will always remember seeing you and Scott together during our Channel 3 days, and thinking that we should all be so lucky as to marry our very best friend in the entire world. And now, it's clear from this guestbook that you are surrounded by so many people who love you and your children dearly. May God bless you and comfort you in this difficult time."

"Karen and Family, Please know that I am praying for you and your family.I hope your warm memories of Scott will comfort you during these difficult times."

"As an associate of Scott's at NGC, I know what a wonderful man he was. With the most respect I send my sympathy to his family and loved ones."

"Dear George and Prudence, We love you both. There's simply no words to say how sorry we are. Butch has such happy memories of living next door to you all these years. One of his most vivid memories of Scott is Christmas Eve 1974 sitting on his lamp post base with Scott waiting for Santa Claus to come. They talked about what they might have in the morning under the tree and how the night seemed to never end. Butch said it was the only night they looked forward to going to bed. To Mr. & Mrs. Rezendes and all of Scotts loved ones and friends, we'll all have great memories of Scott that will keep him alive in our hearts. Stay strong and know that our thoughts are with you. Love, Butch and Rose Boucher"

"Our Sincere Sympathy in your loss.We know this is a very difficult time for all of you. You will all be remembered in our prayers. Scott is at peace now."

"Karen, You and your family are in my thoughts and prayers. May God comfort you during this difficult time of loss. Melissa Connolly"

"We are so sorry for your loss. No time on Earth is long enough to share with those we love or to prepare our hearts for good bye. May time soften the pain until all that remains is the comfort of memories and the love."

"Karen, Sara and Hunter, I am deeply saddened by the news of Scott's passing. I knew him only briefly but his personality, wit, charm and intelligence left me with a lingering memory of his joyous laughter, wonderful smile and youthful energy. He was an inspiration to us all."

"I am so sorry to hear about Scott. We are all devastated here at Northrop Grumman. He was always such a pleasure to work with and I will miss him dearly. My prayers are with his family during this tragic time."

"Scott and I went to grade school and high school together. He was a super guy and will be sorely missed."

"I went to school with Scott at Bellingham High. He was a great person! My prayers are with you and your children."

"Scott was one of the first Program Managers who I worked with when I joined DMS in Apr 2005. He was always helpful and prompt and I enjoyed working with him. We all miss him greatly and we pray for him and his family. He will be remembered as an great man and an inspiration."

"To the Rezendes Family, I work at Northrop Grumman Corporation, and had the privilege of working with Scott briefly about a year ago, and wanted to send my sincere apologies at your loss. Scott was a very kind, helpful, considerate person, and I know he will be greatly missed by everyone who worked with him here. My prayers are with you and your family that God will give you strength and encouragement during this difficul time."

"I'm glad I got to know you and Scott. You two have the most powerful love, that will always be. One of my best memories is Super Bowl at Scott and Karens house. Good times! I pray for the lord to take care of Scott, and to watch over you and your family as he waits for your reunion. Love Robin"

"To the Rezendes Family, I was very saddened to read about Scott's passing in the newspaper. Back in the early 70's, I was the Rezendes Family babysitter. I have nothing but happy memories of Nancy, Doug and Scott. They were wonderful children and a joy to look after. I pray that George, Prudence, Nancy and Doug have the strength to get through this most difficult time. My thoughts and prayers are with you."

"Dear Karen, Sarah, and Hunter, Words can not express the deep sadness and loss Dawn and I feel. I still remember the "Beam Scotty Down" party we had at Karen's apartment in Norfolk right across from Mags the weekend he moved to Virginia. The two of you were always playing host to all of us for parties, holidays, and general good times. Everyone whose lives you all touched at WTKR will miss Scott forever. You are all in our thoughts and prayers. God Bless."

"Karen, Sarah and Hunter My thoughts and prayers are with you. I've always admired the love beaming from your family. It is inspiring! My favorite memory is watching Scott, Sarah and Hunter bouncing on the trampoline and laughing hysterically. I know there is a special angel guiding and protecting you all, always. God Bless. Kristen Joyal Setser"

"A wonderful, wonderful fellow, taken from us too soon. We will remember Scott's laughter, his energy, his wit, his compassion, and most of all, his commitment to family and friends. We miss you Scott. John and Kitty"

"Scott made everything he touched better. His sincere kindness, positive attitude, high energy to succeed, and passion for life are only a few of the characteristics that made Scott one of the best. We will miss him every day."

"George, Prudence, and Karen, Please know that you are in our thoughts and prayers. Karen, Although Scott left us all too soon, his legacy will forever be his love and devotion to you, Sarah, and Hunter. He has left special memories with so many people that time can never take away. George and Prudence, We can't begin to imagine the pain of loosing a child. You are both wonderful individuals and parents. It was very clear that the best of Scott came from the both of you. We hope and pray the tears of grief we all feel will be replaced with smiles and fond memories for the so many lives he touched. Our Love and Prayers Steve and Marybeth Goyette"

"I shared thoughts with Scott only virtually but I noted his awesome attitude about his fate, in that it was in God's hands. Now he's with Him to help us help others through prayer - another virtual channel. God Bless your family!"

"Karen and family, My sincere, deepest sympathy to you. May God be with you and lift you up. My thoughts and prayers are with you. Danny"

"To George,Prudence and family; God bless and keep you in this time of deep sorrow. Our prayers and thoughts are with you. George and Pauline Lacroix"

"You've been a mentor and confidant to me since the beginning of my career at INRI/NGC, and for that I will be forever grateful. I look forward to always recounting the tales of our travels, challenges and your many punchlines for future generations of engineers to learn from. You always made me laugh, and even in this most difficult time, I feel a grin when I think of your contagious enthusiasm for life. You are already missed, my dear friend."

"Scott was an example for others, even before his illness. The attitude and strength he displayed afterwards is, simply put, humbling. May God inspire us all to bring such perspective into our own lives."

"Karen, Sarah and Hunter - First and foremost, I am so very sorry for your loss. If there is ever, ever anything I can do for you and your beautiful children, I will always be here for you..I know Scott would have always done the same for me. From a couple of five year old kids stumbling up the ice together, to a couple of forty year old proud fathers and husbands, Scott and I have been through it all together...my heart is truly heavy at this time. You are all part of so many of my stories and fond memories...from Cape Cod to weddings to cookouts to golf to Christmas Eve visits...I?ve spent the past few days thinking a lot about Scott, and what an amazing person he was. His sense of humor, his intelligence, his personal drive, his love for you and his beaming pride for his children. The strength and optimism he maintained throughout this difficult time is an inspiration to all... My mom said something to me a couple of years ago, sitting out on the deck of the Cape house after you and Scott and the kids had spent the day with us?In so many words, she told me how lucky I was to have surrounded myself over the years with good friends like Scott, and how that made her proud of the way she raised me. That has resonated with me since, and I repeat it often to my son. I tell him ?If you have nothing else in life but good friends you can count on, and who can count on you, then you?re a rich man?? I consider myself a very rich man, Karen, thanks to friends like Scott?"

"To Mr.and Mrs. Rezendes, Doug, and Nancy, I just want to express how very deeply sorry I am at the loss of your son and brother. I know there is nothing I, nor anybody else can say right now to ease the pain you are going through. I know God will give you the strength to pull through this difficult time. You are, and will continue to be in our prayers. I often recall the times that you included me, as Scott's friend, and took me along on your family vacation to Cape Cod. You didn't have to do that, but you did, and that is something I appreciate and will never forget. As a kid growing up in our tight knit neighborhood, I have many, many, happy memories of times spent hanging around with Scott. One childhood memory that comes to mind is Scott, Doug, and myself sitting in your living room playing with our fishing poles. We cast the line and the sinker hit the TV and cracked the screen. We didn't know how we were going to explain that one!! I lost contact with Scott as we got older. I now know by hearing and reading what kind of man he grew up to be, it was truly my loss."

"From the time I joined INRI and to this day I knew that Scott was a reservoir of knowledge and one of the good guys that always made time to call you back or answer your email. He had the demeanor, patience, and personality that encouraged you to talk with him. We will miss him..."

"Scott was an inspiration to just about everyone who knew him. His work ethic, his genuine friendliness, his ability to make a good time better, his creativity, his drive, and his love of family and friends will always be with us. I recall so many golf outings, some just he and I, meals we shared, and strategy discussions about INRI. I valued his opinions and ideas and I felt honored to have him among my closest friends. I know he is finally at peace, but we that continue here will so miss his laugh, his warmth, and his compassion. I hope his children will one day understand what a legacy of friends and memories he left us all."

"Dear Prudence and George: We know it's not fair that Scott had to die so young, after he and everyone in the family struggled for so long to beat the disease. Even for us, who knew him mainly from a distance, his loss hurts because it hurts all of you. For us, it shows what a strong and wonderful family he has had, from you, his mother and father, to Nancy and Doug, to Karen and Hunter and Sarah. His memory will always be with us. Betty and Jim"

"Dear Karen: I don't know if you remember me. I was an intern at WTKR when you were a producer there. I always looked up to you! I am so sorry to hear of your great loss. I pray that God will give you deep peace and comfort during this extremely difficult time. Sending my love, Christine Whitmore Rucker"

"Karen, I was an old high school classmate of Scott's from Bellingham High. Though I didn't know him that well, he was always such a nice guy. My thoughts and prayers go out to you and your family. God will give you the strength and the courage to get through this difficult time. My heart goes out to your children. God Bless you. Maureen Prendergast Roselli"

"Dear Karen, I knew Scott from his work for the Air Force, and I had the distinct honor and privilege of working with him on some truly groundbreaking new capabilities which have made a very positive difference for our country and the men and women in the armed services. I also knew Scott as a very proud father of two wonderful children, Sarah and Hunter, as he spoke about you often. He was so proud of you, and he made us so glad to work with him--there was always energy and life in everything he did. His brilliant mind and talent was evident in all he did. I shall miss him as a friend and as a very patriotic American. God bless you, and know that he will be sorely missed by all of us at Hanscom. Clif Banner"

"I wanted to express my sympathy in the loss of my co-worker Scott. I had the opportunity to work with him since our two offices merged here in Middletown and he was always right on top of any issue we were dealing with even up to a few weeks ago. I know in speaking with him regarding his illness he was fighting a very difficult battle but he did it with a smile, never a complaint no matter how he was feeling. I have been praying for him and will continue to do so until his young soul is resting in heaven. God bless you in these difficult days ahead and always know he is watching over you all the rest of your days."

"Though I never knew Scotty as a man, I did know him as a kid. I have always held fond memories of babysitting him and Doug and Nancy, back on Marc Avenue years ago. I sometimes think about what these kids are like today, as adults, and from what I can see in this guest book, Scotty grew up to become a fine son, husband and father. I'm very saddened to hear about his passing, and wish to express my sincere and deepest sympathies."
