I cried when I received the text message that Scott had taken his own life. It broke my heart.
I spoke to his (84yo) mother for an hour on Wednesday May 18th (the night of his passing) and she was devastated. No one should bury their child.
I and some of his friends raised $3500 so far to help his mother pay for the funeral. If anyone wants to contribute you can DM me.
I will miss my friend Scott. And to paraphrase Star Trek II: Of my friend, I can only say this. Of all the souls I have encountered in my travels, his was the most human.
