Just found out about Scott’s untimely passing. My most sincere condolences to his family. I first meet Scott in 87 at a theatre company where he was directing a play. Remember the theatre was a old rundown venue where on some nights the theatre cat, Buster would walk across the stage proudly during a performance with a mouse in his mouth. Scott and I would laugh way to hard during and after Buster’s surprise appearances. Needless to say, me and Scott became the best of friends. There are so many wonderful memories of Scott to write. All we did was laugh at any inane thing. Being a California native, Scott became part of my family, staying over for Christmas and thanksgiving and always being a part of the family get togethers. We loved talking anything cinema and music for hours. Our theee main hangouts were Headlines Cafe in Westwood where Scott was a projectionist at the Mann Cinema. (Free Movies!!), IHOP in West
Hollywood where we would talk till the sun came up and
Broadners, where all the pretentious USC filmmakers pontificated thru the night, Scott
And I would leave and laugh so hard at all the boasting. It’s pretty clear how much he meant to me and forever will. He was a giant part of my life and terrific supporter. The last ten years we kind of went different paths as I married and started my family and Scott went to WB. We last physically saw each other about five years ago. Went to our favorite IHOP, talked and remembered all our dreams we postulated way back when. Although this time we left way before the sun would rise as two older guys who found their paths and needed more sleep, lol
Scott, you will always be my brother and a part of my family. I will miss that rascally Scotty smile, esp when when I tell you one of my numerous hair brain ideas.
I hope your running with your beloved dog, Freckels as I type this and know that spell check does make a difference, of course you never needed any of that brother!!
I love you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
