Becky and family i am so sorry to hear of Scooter’s passing. Even when we know we will see them again it is always too soon when our loved ones leave. I will always remember how friendly Scooter was. He always had a smile reflecting God’s love! His love for you all will transcend the grave. I pray the Comforter will bring peace and quiet to your hearts as you reflect on the joy of his life. Love and hugs.
