Jennifer Ralph is creating this fundraiser for Gema, the wife of Jennifer’s dear friend and colleague, Scott Sink. For more than two decades at Dana Hills High School, Scott gave his heart, talent, humor, and seemingly endless energy to his students, friends, and community. He was a deeply loved teacher in CUSD since 2004, known for teaching all levels of Spanish and for being the colleague everyone turned to with a question about language or grammar. Scott was brilliant, curious, talented, generous, and always willing to step up when something or someone needed him. Beyond the classroom, he was also a martial arts instructor, musician, artist, activist, mentor, and friend who cared deeply about people and the world around him. 
 
 
 It is with profound sadness that we share that Scott passed away after a battle with pancreatic cancer. In the difficult months following his diagnosis, there was also something beautiful to celebrate: Scott married his longtime partner and the love of his life, Gema. This fundraiser now continues in Scott’s memory and in support of Gema as she faces the financial burdens associated with Scott’s illness and passing. Donations will help ease those burdens and give Gema space to grieve without having to carry them alone. 
 
 
 Scott spent decades teaching, creating, advocating, mentoring, making music, and giving back to his community. He gave so much of himself to so many people. Now it is our turn to give something back in his memory and to surround Gema with the same love and generosity that Scott so freely gave to others. Please consider making a donation to support Gema during this extraordinarily difficult time. No contribution is too small. If you are unable to donate, sharing this campaign and helping us keep Scott’s memory alive are equally meaningful ways to show your support. There is also another way to honor Scott: keep listening to his music. Scott wanted his music to be heard, shared, streamed, and enjoyed, so please keep Scott Keltic Knot playing. Subscribe to his YouTube channels, stream his music on Spotify, Apple Music, Amazon, and other platforms, add his songs to your playlists, share them with others, and follow Scott Keltic Knot on Facebook and Instagram. Rest in peace, Scott. Thank you for the lessons, the laughter, the music, the friendship, and the countless ways you made our lives richer. You will be deeply missed and never forgotten. Español: Durante más de dos décadas, Scott Sink entregó su corazón, su talento, su sentido del humor y su aparentemente inagotable energía a sus estudiantes, sus amigos y su comunidad. Con una profunda tristeza, compartimos ahora que Scott ha fallecido después de su lucha contra el cáncer de páncreas. Simplemente no hay palabras para expresar esta pérdida. Scott fue maestro en CUSD desde 2004 y un miembro profundamente querido de la comunidad de Dana Hills High School. A lo largo de los años, enseñó todos los niveles de español. Scott siempre estaba presente para los demás. Y ahora nos toca a nosotros estar presentes para la persona que más amaba: su esposa, Gema. En medio de los meses increíblemente difíciles que siguieron al diagnóstico de Scott, también hubo algo hermoso que celebrar: Scott se casó con Gema, su pareja de muchos años y el amor de su vida. Estamos profundamente agradecidos de que hayan podido compartir esa alegría y celebrar la vida y el amor que construyeron juntos. Tras el fallecimiento de Scott, esta campaña continuará ahora en su memoria y para apoyar a Gema. Las donaciones ayudarán a aliviar las cargas económicas relacionadas con la enfermedad y el fallecimiento de Scott, y permitirán que Gema tenga el espacio necesario para vivir su duelo sin tener que cargar sola con esas preocupaciones. Para quienes tuvimos la fortuna de conocer a Scott, su ausencia se sentirá profundamente. Pero también seguiremos sintiendo su presencia. Vivirá en los innumerables estudiantes a quienes enseñó e inspiró, en los colegas que aprendimos de él, en su música y su arte, en las causas que defendió, en las amistades que cultivó y en todas las historias que quienes lo queremos seguiremos contando. Scott dedicó décadas a enseñar, crear, defender causas importantes, orientar a otros, hacer música y contribuir a su comunidad. Dio muchísimo de sí mismo a muchísimas personas. Ahora nos toca a nosotros devolver un poco de todo lo que Scott nos dio, honrando su memoria y rodeando a Gema del mismo amor y generosidad que él siempre brindó a los demás.
