Jenne Little wrote a sympathy message

“He was a strong advocate for the print centers and was always making sure we were okay. Whenever we had a machine go down, Scott would text or call to let us know he received the call and that he would be there to take care of the machine. If he couldn’t make it right away, he would always give us a time and day when he could be there. That kind of dedication and communication meant a lot to us.”
