As we struggle with this sudden grief, we are still trying to figure out how to properly memorialize Scott. In honor of his most burning passion (SCUBA), we want to sponsor some children in DC to experience what it is like to 'fly under water like Superman', as Scott would always say. We will endeavor to work with some of his favorite local dive shops and pools to give that first underwater experience to awaken new passionate divers.

And while we are at a loss to figure out what is the perfect way, we also would like to install a memorial for a man who so completely pulled people into his orbit and jumped so enthusiastically into their lives. We welcome your thoughts on how to do this.

We are so grateful for your love, as we, his friends and family, plan both a living and permanent memorial to our larger-than-life guy.
