RE: RIP Scott
I just returned home ,
What a long drive. It was nice to see Scott's turf, After being invited up there so many times. My only regret is that I didn't go up flying with Scott. We talked about it many times. But never had a chance to make it happen.
For those who couldn't make the drive for whatever reason. you won't be surprised to know there was over eight hundred people in attendance at Scott's wake. And I didn't count but I would say there had to be at least 350 at the church and Cemetery for the funeral. What a tribute to a great Person. Scott touched so many people in so many ways. He will be remembered forever not only by his jet Buds But also by all those who new and loved him. And let me tell you , I saw allot of tears. Scott was a great friend to all of us guys. Scott Is Resting In Capac Cemetery now rite in front of his father. The cemetery is located rite out side town and has many giant oak trees. Its out in the country, like something you would see in a hallmark card. What a nice place for him. Ive got to tell you guys. Tears come to my eyes every time I think of this whole thing. But I am glad I got to see Scott one last time. My inspiration's on this Is that Our Friendship with Scott is not over, But just Postponed, someday in the future we will all get to fly with him again. Ben I too am going to wear something in memory of Scott this upcoming year. And I am going to fly the living you know what out of my airplanes Cause I know thats what he would be telling me to do. Oh well what else can I tell you that you don't already know.
To All I say , Remember Scott's Smile, Ear to ear Throttle up and Knife edge pass
WWWWWWWWOOOOOOOOOOSSSSSSSSSSSSSHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
To Scott I don't say goodbye but see ya later bud, Rest easy Brother.
My love and prayers go out to Cathy And Scott's entire family .
Your good friend Terry D north of Chicago
