Scott was a trusted friend and better than I deserved. Not-to-mention brother-in-law, fellow Welsh folk-dancer, musician, amateur radio enthusiast, and loving father. Truly a treasured friend and will be missed by all who knew him. Farewell good old fellow.
I am so sorry for you and your family. Losing someone so close to you is always painful . Prayers for you and your family.
I had the honor to work with Scott many years at Honeywell. A great person, friend and respected by his peers. God bless
I posted a link to Scot’s obituary on the Former Bendix, AlliedSignal, Honeywell, Kansas City Plant employees Facebook page so work friends and coworkers would know of his loss. There were dozens and dozens of comments where everyone who knew him reflected on how kind and helpful Scot always was. Quite a tribute!
I just wanna give my condolences to the family, I’m sorry for your loss. I will always remember the stories he told me about visiting Wales to meet his family and traveling with his late wife all around. He was so down to earth. He is now resting in heaven reunited with his wife and pain free. Praying for all of the family during this difficult time. 🙏
So sorry to all his family for the loss of your loved one. He was.a very nice & helpful man. He was in our dertment as one of the Engineers. RIP SCOT
