Chris was my best friend growing up.  I was always impressed and envious of his intelligence and confidence.  He was the kind of person that was always there when you needed him.  I think back on the time we spent hanging out together fondly.  I owe so many of the positive aspects to my personality to his influence.  I definitely miss my friend.  Hope you found peace buddy.   

I know I didn't get a chance to know you and neither did Ann and my son Connor but we have heard so many great things about you from Ann. You will be greatly missed but never far from our thoughts.

Hello Chris I will always remember when we were little kids and we could play but when it came time to go you would never give me a hug and a kiss goodbye. As we got older you would give me a hug and a kiss and say see you later... I then asked you why when we were kids did you run away and never say goodbye and even as adults you would say see you later. You told me have you ever felt if you said goodbye you may never see that person again? From then on I understood and that's why I will not say goodbye I will say see you later. I love you and miss you but all the memories I hold of you will burn bright like the stars in the sky which i will look to when I think of you. Love you always your cousin Ann Marie

Sweet Heart  I promise To be here For Holly And Heaven  , I will miss Talking  but I will Light My candle and say My prayers, And I know you will be Looking out for all of us .
I can go over  and Over in my head about all the fun times we had together when you all where children  when I wanted to teach you to dance . Then I heard you were taking lesson  it made me smile  . keep dancing up there sweetie  I Love you

Oh boy, The day is upon us, Today is the day that loved one will pass through the gates of heaven, I really don't know what to think at this moment in time or even what to feel, Kinda as if my mind and body is numb, Today will be a day of sorrow and happiness all around. Sorrow that you are no longer in our lives yet happiness that you are now in a better place and also worry free. You have touched the lives of many people and everyone that you came in contact with as if you had some sort of magnetism that pulled them into you and that they could never escape. A husband that I can only hope that i will be able to compare up to, You were the one and only Brother and best friend that I was glad to have in my life, You were a great Father with a love that touched your kids to no end, You were an amazing Son and Nephew. Although you are no longer physically here, you are now a guiding light to so many people with a light that is going to shine brighter then the North star. You will never be forgotten and you will and always forever will be loved. May you rest in piece my brother and keep our mother company. I will always and forever love you and will do right by you. 

R.I.P. Chris Scala (Beloved Brother, Father, Husband, & Nephew) (May 6th 1977 - July 27th 2013) Age 36

Thinking of you n Heaven today. Love you both

Joe, Vincent and all of Chris's family.  Holly, I don't know you, Chris lived down the street from me when he was young.  I am so sorry for all of you  and was I was deeply saddened to hear of your loss.  I hope it comforts all of you that he will be with Shelly now.  My thoughts are with all of you on this truly difficult day.

Our thoughts and prayers go out to all who knew and loved Chris.  He will be greatly missed.  Rest in Peace Chris.  We love you Holly and Heaven.

Chris you touched many lives and had a positive effect on everyone that you came in contact with. Your many friends and loved ones are so fortunate to have witnessed your kind spirit, youthful exuberance, and wonderful personality. You will be sorely missed and may the wonderful memories in which you created help to comfort everyone that cared for and loved you at this most difficult time. Rest in peace my friend...

Chris was a good Airman. I remember when he arrived to my section fresh out of technical school. I knew right then he was going to be a very good Combat Arms Instructor. I was right. He was very well liked by all that knew him. I was shocked when MSgt Graham called me and told me that Chris had passed. I remember meeting his wife and kids. He was trying to get orders to MacDill AFB. I have a lot of fond memories of Chris. God Bless him. I pray for the families loss.

Holly, we are so sorry for you and Heaven. Our hearts continue to break for you. I wish I knew something to say to ease your pain, but I know no such words exist. I know God will hold you in the palm of his hand, and help guide you through the process of facing a life without Chris. We all loved Chris. I felt from the time of your first date that he was something special, and time has shown that I was right. He was a true gentleman, with a very giving heart. He had a great smile on his face whenever we talked. And most importantly, he made you happier than I've ever seen you in all the years I have known you. We will miss Chris, and pray for you and your family as you face life without him.

My thoughts and prayers are with your whole family, although I never met Chris I can say I have heard wonderful stories through Ann and Rae <3 and

R.I.P. SSGT Scala. You were the first person a first term airman would see. From the 6th SFS to the 482d SFS, you were my first sponsor when I entered the USAF and you were the one person who made weapons training classes fun! I can't believe you're gone. Never forgotten! (Salute)
