Love you pappy lalala
Scott was a great guy and good friend and neighbor. He was best friends with our son, and they spent many happy hours doing things together. He always had a smile on his face, and he had a great sense of humor. We will miss him. Love, Joe & Rebekah Martin
“Boney” was one of a kind! It was such a pleasure to know him. I had the pleasure of being one of his home health nurses. I always looked forward to visiting with him.
I’ll always remember him walking me through persuading their four legged babies with dog treats to welcome me before sitting down to visit with him.
I always admired his love for Missy and the love that they shared. We will miss you so much Boney! Rest easy! ❤️

Q: What was one of your favorite qualities of Philip?
A: That no matter how bad anything was he was always polite and respectful. He would always be there with a joke and a smile even when times where pain he always tried to make things a little bit better. There is so much I could say about him that I can’t fit it all here but he was a big influence in my life and he will be missed.
Q: How did you meet Philip?
A: I met Scott when he was a young boy. He was so full of life and so mischievous. I was dating his older brother and he loved to tease us. It didn’t take long for me to love him and think of him as my honorary younger brother. He never missed a chance to embarrass his brother and me. He grew into a loving young man and married the love of his life. Everyone who knows him will always remember him with love. I know I will.
