I have counted Scott as one of my best friends for many years since college. Time and distance watered down the contact. He reached out to me a year ago after opening a time capsule. I was touched. Scott was deeply interested in others and a loyal friend. I will remember and miss him.
Scott’s playful intelligence, generous spirit, and loving nature will be so deeply missed by all who had the good fortune to have known him.
I remember his welcoming and generosity when I first started private practice, and enjoyed many talks and consultations with him. So wise and kind.
Scott was incredibly kind, patient, loving, and quick to laugh. I feel profoundly lucky to have known him. He helped guide me in many ways and I will hold him in my heart forever.
A loving man, a stand out psychologist, and a fine friend. He will be missed, his memory, a blessing.
