Scott touched each and every person he came in contact with. No words can express the loss your family must feel. Keeping you and your loved ones in our prayers. Sincerly The Bastien Family ( Fermi Nuclear 2007 Monroe Mi Shutdown) Joni you are so in our thoughts and prayers during this time and always .
I have known Scott since high school and we were good friends. Scott was a person who left footprints in people’s lives. Once you had known him, you were not likely to forget him. He was a kind man with an easy smile and was quick to make friends. He is in God’s loving care now, but his presence here will be missed by many. Thank you for your service Scott. Semper Fi.
God Speed Scott. You were well liked and respected among all the CBI Family. Condolences to Joni and your family.
Our thoughts and prayers are with you all.
