Many precious memories are floating around in Heaven today. I could not comment on any certain one being more important than the other because all were full of laughter and good times. Scott would literally give you the shirt off his back if you ask for it. He was always full of energy and spirit. You are missed deeply my friend but will never be forgotten. Say hi to my Boys as you pass by each other. R. I. P. Scott Alan Rowan

Scotty was not only a good guy and friend but he was a great stepdad. Scotty was the first dad I had in my life ,he stepped into my life from day one literarily an he never walked out. He was a dad when he didn't have to be but loved my mom and me enough to take it on. We lost touch for some years after the divorce but, picked up as I got older and became great friends. Scotty made sure I knew he always loved me .An for all he did and was in my life I will cherish and love him for that !

Message from Bruce Workman - July 27 at 01:07 PM

Scott and I played football together way back at West Preston. I knew him as always having a good heart and a fun person to be around. As the years passed, so did our contact with each other. However, it doesn't diminish the sadness I have for your personal loss of a son and our loss in losing a long time friend. My best recollection of a story we would always share was a time when I had picked him up for either football practice or weightlifting. I was driving my family's car and he was in the passenger seat. He was talking about his relatives that were in - I think from Ohio - and he was showing me the new dance moves that they were showing him. He called it "Break Dancing". So here you have the two of us heading to August football practice and he is moving his arms like they were rubber. He is saying things like - yeah they are showing me these break dancing moves and he keeps doing some of them in the passenger seat. Well, I start mimicking them and before you know it we are both "break dancing" while we go pick up Brian Day. Of course as young drivers do, I stop paying attention to the road and I am fixated on mimicking Scott's new dance style. The next thing either of us know we are driving through someone's yard and then plowing through someone's fence. Later, Scott would recall to the entire football team how the fence posts were flying through the air up over the hood like you see on TV. We came to a stop and just stared at each other. Scott and I got out of the car, and he waited with me as the owner of the fence came out, then the police, and finally my dad came to survey the damage. He disappeared somewhere in the small crowd and went on to the school while I went home and helped my dad pull lumber out of the grill and fixed the neighbor's fence. When I finally made it back to the team, Scott had told everyone the news and as I arrived, he replayed the whole scene for everyone again. He didn't leave anything out. He was doing the dance moves that we were doing and then gestured how the fence flew over the windshield. It was all good natured and he teased me every time we saw each other. A good friend in high school is a good friend for life. Scott was a good friend. My thoughts and prayers are with you. Bruce Workman

Buster, Barbara Jo, and Rachel: We are heartbroken to learn of Scott's passing. The agony of losing your child, at any age, is over whelming and the hurt seems more than we can stand. But, remember, that hurt bears witness to the depth of love you have for Scott. You may have held his hand for too short a time but you will hold his heart for the rest of your lives. We have fond memories of our kids growing up together, playing, participating in sports, going to games, etc. I think Scott and Jamie were just out of high school when they were off to Arizona for the WVU National Championship. Life can be so hard and sometimes we lose our footing. But in the end, it will be the little things we remember and cherish. The quiet moments, the smiles, the jokes, and the laughter shared with those we loved. Scott's journey on earth touched the lives of so many and gave us many happy memories. May you find strength in your faith, comfort in God's love, and peace in knowing your friends will continue to pray for all of you. We love you dearly, Sharon and Tim

Message from Mary Cottrell - July 26 at 11:37 AM

A memory of Scotty; hmm, where to start? Scotty was always a smart loving person, always willing to help you with anything that was needed, always a good friend. I remember when we were all young and liked to get into things, but Scotty's biggest thing back then he got into was fights. We always had to drag him out of somewhere, because if someone said something smart to any of us, you can be sure he was going to finish it and not with words. He will be missed!!!
Message from Lisa Cottrell - July 26 at 08:13 AM

Scotty will be missed by all who knew him ; Especially that smile and grin with his little giggle . My heart is at peace knowing he loved Bradley and I no matter what ! 20 years later and we was still arguing like a married couple but he was a good friend and will be missed :blue_heart::yellow_heart:

Message from Ron Kight - July 25 at 02:08 PM

I would like to send my condolences to Scott's parents, family and friends. Scott was always a good friend to me and I'm sure that he will be missed by everyone who knew him. Whenever I had a chance to speak to Scott he always had a funny story about himself, his family and especially his friends that made me laugh. He also was never too busy to lend a helping hand or to loan me a plumbing tool of some sort whenever I needed it. I met Scott many years ago when he was much younger through a mutual acquaintance and lost touch with him until just a few years ago. I'm glad that I got to know him again later on in life and to meet his parents and family. After hearing about his passing today I really wish that I had taken the chance to stop by more often and visit with him rather than just pass by his house because I was always in a rush. You will be missed by all of those who lives that you touched Scott. I know that you took the passing of your brother a few years ago very hard and now I hope that you both will get the chance to be reunited somehow. So long Scott, may you rest in peace.
