Scott always had a smile and waved to the residents he met. He was a true joy in the Courtyard at WV. I was happy that he recalled me after his admission to the Courtyard. He was one of those people that just didn't give in to be negative. I thank him for our talks and worship at Saturday Mass. God bless your witness!
