What a tragic shame. My thoughts are with his friends and family.
Scott was one of the first friends I made here. He was sweet and funny and caring and I can’t imagine anyone ever disliking him.
I wish he’d been able to attend the LA Dopefest last year. I wish I’d gotten the chance to meet him in person and I envy those of you who have.
I miss you, hon.
My sympathy to those (dopers and IRL) who knew him well. What a tragic accident.
Thanks, Cajun Man, for the link.
Being another Southern California doper, I had always hoped I would have had a chance to meet him at one of our gatherings. He always seemed to be a nice and kind-hearted person, and the response here on the boards show this.
My condolences to his friends and family.
What happened to him?
The age of the internet makes many things possible…including sadness at the loss of people we’ve never even met.
We will miss him here in our community, and Bluesman and I send our condolences to his friends and family.
I’m so, so, sorry. My condolences.
When I clicked on this thread, I didn’t see the link that had been posted. Oops.
I didn’t know him, but his name always made me smile.
My condolences.
Truly a tragic event. My heart goes out to all concerned.
I hope we all can take a minute to realize just how important we are to each other, and to cherish our lives, and realize how we affect the ones we love, and those who love us. Sometimes we forget.
Peace, Scott, and family.
I don’t hardly anyone here, but I read alot of threads. I read alot of his…he seemed to be a wonderful person and added alot to this board. I always laughed reading his threads. So sorry to everyone that knew him. My condolences.
:eek:
Rest in peace… the world is a little darker now that one of its candles has gone out.
Boy, ain’t that the truth. We don’t know a heck of a lot about each other on here aside from what’s posted in these threads (except for those who email each other or know each other offline). But after we read someone’s posts for a little while, we get a sense of their self, their being; when something happens to them in real life and it’s posted here, we feel their joy and their pain. That’s why this place is better than most message boards or other online communities. We learn from each other, and we live through each other.
Oh, how awful. Thanks for posting the link to the news story–I can’t wrap my mind around something when I know no details. Except this is something I’d rather not wrap my mind around.
My condolences to all who are feeling his loss so keenly–and to the rest of us, who feel the shock of losing a boardmate.
My thoughts go out to his friends and family. Scotti, I know what a good friend Scott was to you. If I can do anything, please let me know.
I am so sorry.
I never knew him, but I wish that I had.
Thoughts and sadness from New Zealand. My condolences to his loved family and friends.
Wolfie bows her head.
One of the reasons that I enjoy Dopefests is that I can connect a face and body to people that are very important to me but I have only seen as dots on a screen. Unfortunately, there is one fewer of us that I will be able to see in real life.
