Mike Pasichnyk says
Very sad to hear about Scott. Shelly and I recently emailed Scott to get permission to ski up the valley from his place. He emailed me back and graciously said sure come on up. We had a great ski that day.
I will always remember Scott as the adventurous young boy with his family at the cabin on Colorado Gulch.

I met John Scott while he was living in Tampa, FL. He cared for my dog Morpheus then my dog Neo. I went to visit him in Montana years later. It is by pure coincidence that tonight, I learn of his passing. John Scott was a brilliant and exceptional man. My heart goes to his entire family (I had the privilege to meet some of his beautiful family while my stay in Montana) and many friends. And to you, John Scott, I hope that wherever you are, you have found serenity and peace… You so deserve. These are very sad news.
Mike Bruce Weber says
Scott was an inspiration to me. I met him in April 2014. I was at a low point. Scott was a tremendous help. I was at the animal rescue and spoke with him briefly on or about 2/22/18. We laughed.
Scott Kaiser says
A Fellow Vet, A Friend I never met, yet a Patriot.

His Service will always be known as keeping America Free.
God Bless him and God Bless America.

John was my first platoon OIC. He was one of the most interesting men I have ever met, and it was an honor to call him a friend and teammate. Rest easy frog
Brendan Coyle says
I didn’t know Scott well, but we played rugby together in school in Brussels. When I heard the news of his passing I went and dug up old pictures of our rugby team, and there he was. I remember him as being a good guy, a decent guy (and fully committed on the rugby field). It is so sad to hear he has passed. My thoughts go out to his family. May he rest in peace.
Wendy says
So sad to hear about John’s passing. I was his platoon commander in ROTC. He reminded me of my brothers, so I found it easy to talk to him—intelligent, hard working, detached, and antisocial. It’s funny the things I remember. I remember how his eyes would get soft whenever he spoke about his mom, his sister, and Jen. You could tell he loved and respected them. I also remember how tense he would get whenever talking about his father. He showed no warmth there. I remember talking about how he lived in a tent to save money and that he only had a few pairs of jeans and would sew the holes when they would fray too much. I never asked my parents for any money, so I figured he was the same. I remember him running the bleachers every morning regardless of the weather. I remember how much he valued honesty. I remember being surprised when he showed up to a class party with an appetizer and gave me his mom’s recipe for it. He was so proud of his mom and happy to share something of her. I remember him paying to take a BUD/S refresher training so he wouldn’t have to redo the entire training when he was commissioned. I imagine it was worth living in a tent to be able to pay for the training and not have to redo BUD/S. I didn’t keep in touch with him after commissioning-I’m a little detached too-but I did ask about him through mutual friends from time to time. I was thrilled to hear he married Jen. She is such a good person. The kind of person we all liked and admired. I was super sad when I heard they divorced. I was intrigued when I heard he retired from active duty well before the rest of us. I was shocked to hear he had a child under the circumstance he did. We are all human, but when good people do bad things it is especially disheartening. And I was heartbroken to hear he passed the way he did.
Monique Ray says
I met John my very first day of A school in Great Lakes, IL. He was the sweetest most contemplative guy. A friend and I were recently talking about him. So sorry to hear he passed the world is a dimmer place without him.
