Uncle Scott,

This has been far overdue really. I remember riding around in your truck when I was just a little kid and you taking my brother and I to go see Liar Liar in the theater. The "talks" you gave me when we would come down to visit to keep me on the straight and narrow since I was giving my mom such a hard time at that point. I still remember everything every time we got to hang out. I know the whole family misses you and Mark pretty bad but we remember the good times and that helps get through the bad. Whenever I wear an old acadamy shirt of yours I always end up wearing Marks vest for some reason when I'm out riding! Keep lookin' out for Mom and Grandma and Grandpa and Cassie and Karen I know they need it. Miss you man.
