    My thoughts and prayers are with the entire family for your loss. Scotty was always kind and considerate when I met with him in business. I learned over time that was who he was and how he treated everyone. He was respected in his profession and in the community. Loved by and deeply loved his family. It was a joy to know and be around Scotty and I feel blessed to have know him.

    Dear Nina, Mike and Ron,
    We are saddened to hear about Scotty’s passing but he did mention to me in our frequent email conversations that he was battling some health issues. Scotty and I traded a lot of great stuff on-line! He had a passion for America’s greatness.

    Today is November 1st, Barb’s birthday, and she would have been 88 today. We are humbled in our remembrance of Scotty, especially today. We recall fondly the LIFELONG friendship between Dad and Mom (Nelson and Barbara Travers) and Scotty and Nina. Scotty was a great man! He will be missed greatly. Our best wishes to your family.

    Love,
    Diane and John Gray
    Debbie and Jeff Travers
