After meeting Scott you were considered a friend for life. He enjoyed people and loved to talk. Many of the friends he made were customers he had met along the way at Brooks' Sandwich House which he co-owns with his brother Dave, established by his father CT in 1973. Our family will cherish the stories and memories often conveyed in conversation with Scott about the diverse people he encountered at the shop.

Scott has been a member of Idlewild Baptist Church for over 35 years. He was involved in various ministries throughout the years. He loved the people there and always greeted you with a smile and a hug, both of which will be dearly missed.

The family will receive friends on Saturday, December 14 from 12:00-2:00 at Idlewild Baptist Church. A celebration of life service for Scott will take place at 2:30, followed by an extended visitation through 5:00.

A graveside service will take place on Sunday, December 15 at 2:00 at Sunset Memory Gardens on Lawyers Rd, Mint Hill, NC.
