I am so sorry for your loss. I grew up on the same street as Scott and have a lot of fond memories as kids. Scott always had a great smile and was a nice guy.

In memory of Scott J. Nape, Stephen Stone lit a candle

Scott was my childhood friend, living across the street from my parents house. We were roommates for a few yrs before I took a job in Cincinnati. We continued to be friends when I moved back. We injoyed playing pool almost every week at my house. We had a special drink we made up and we called it the copperhead. I shot of 151 run and 1 shot of reg. Rum. And it had I bite. He was a trusting guy with anything. I just wish I tried harder to get him to stop smoking and take care of himself. I love Scott and I will miss him alot. I will do 1 last shot of copperhead in his honor and then put that drink to rest. Cheers Scott my friend
