We are devastated at your passing Scott. I was 6 years old when you made your way into this world and will always remember your Mom dressing you and Tim up as twins (I had never heard of the term Irish twins, but that's what you two were). Auntie KK and I will fondly remember our games of charades and with you choosing the same two-word charade for every single game, tobogganing in the winter in South Taylor, swimming in the backchannel and at Peace Island Park, "babysitting" you and your brothers, and I quote that very loosely since it was more like playdates, camping trips and of course our backyard campouts in Gramma and Grampa's tent trailer. I will also remember the 6 am hockey games at the rink in Fort St. John in the freezing rinks and you getting mad when your brother won MVP for the tournament without scoring a single goal. I also remember your efforts to make sure your hair was always perfect before you left the house and there wasn't a single hair out of place. I could go on for days thinking of all of your quirks and antics growing up. You had an incredible talent for music and your ease with being around people will always be remembered. Always the first one to tease, but you were never mean. The smaller kids were always ready to give you the gears and you always reciprocated in a way that made them feel special. Always in good fun. We never know when our last time will arrive and that is what makes this so hard. No chance to say goodbye and give you a big hug and tell you that we love you and that we will miss you. I am sure that you are watching over Hayden, Abi, your beautiful grandchildren and the rest of us who are left to mourn your loss. Rest easy nephew. You are forever in my heart. Love Auntie JoJo
