Joseph L Shepherd says
I was Scott’s friend at Bala Ave public school and my greatest memories racing our bikes at a factory on Industry street and watching Scott play baseball at Smythe park. Reading comics in his basement and making models of dragsters. I’m so sorry for your loss. The picture used on this memorial has captured his infectious smile and love of life. I lived at 26 Mahoney and Scott lived at 15 Mahoney. Where did the time go?
In sadness.

So sorry to hear of Scott’s passing. We was a valued colleague at Harvest House and a very nice man. Please accept my sincerest condolences.
Keith Hann says
Donna, Cory and Candice, I am so sorry for your loss.
My earliest memories of Scott are from Thorold, with Susie, after Scott lost his father. Trips to Sullivan park, Avondale dairy and always getting into mischief at Aunt Isabele’s. I have memories of dropping by the house on Nickle after Leona passed and he and Gary were making a go of it on their own. My latest memory is when we got together for brunch a few years ago at your home. The mischievous smile and the easy going personality never seemed to change. We could go years without seeing each other but instantly fell back into the same relationship when our paths crossed, I will miss that, I will miss him.
Wendy-Sue says
Donna, I was so sorry to hear of Scottie’s passing. Scottie was always so chipper. He always wanted to know how you were-he listened and he cared.Scottie was undoubtedly one of the good guys and made good use of his short time on earth. He will be missed by all that knew him and they are blessed. Thinking of you and you kids.
Coulter Family / Harvest House says
To Donna and the whole family: on behalf of the Coulter family, I extend our deepest sympathy on the passing of Scott. He was a wonderful colleague at Harvest House.
