Growing up in Waterloo with Scott was a lot fun. We were always playing basketball or exploring. We would hunt nightcrawlers and go fishing. The summers were fun. Those are great memories I will always have. It is important for the family's to continue making memories. I hope all of you find comfort in knowing Scott is in God's hands.

I grew up with Scott and am still friends with his sister. He was a good person and we had some fun times as he lived across the alley from me. My deepest prayers go out to his friends and family. Fly with the angels!

I knew Scott since he was little but I never knew his name was Robert! I officiated at his first wedding. I have loved him and his whole family dearly. Those days in Waterloo NE were good days!
