Murray 28 Charwood Circle Rochester, NY 14609 To offer on line condolences visit www.wright-beard.com I was a close friend of Scott when I resided in Cortland from 1982-1986 when I worked for Radio Station OK-100. Scott taught me the intracacies of trout fishing and we had many good times together in the wild. He always seemed to be in a good mood and his presence brightened up any occasion. He will be truly missed. Unfortunately my present location prevents me from attending his services, but be assured that my thoughts and prayers are with his family Peter Bucky Dear Yvonne and Robin, We were so heartboken for you when we heard about Scott. Please know that you are in our hearts, thoughts and prayers. As Yvonne would say, "please know that your are loved." Claire & Gerry Hounchell With our hearfelt sympathy to the Murray Family, Scott was a near and dear friend with a kind soul and heart. We spent many happy years together. You were always there for me as a true friend. The memories will never be forgoten, "skiddle-skiddle" until we all meet again at the 19th hole. Rest in peace dear friend; we will never forget you. Casey and Izzy It is with great sadness that I wright this condolence as I will remember Scott as a person that was always on the intelligent side of a conversation. When I first met him many years ago we hit it off right away as both were involved in the electronics field Scott as a Supplier and me as an end user. We had many conversations involving our field and he would go out of his way to send me free samples from time to time. As time went on I found out he was a Golfer which is also an interest of mine. I must admit he was very gracious in putting up with me on the Golf Course as I considered myself a hacker compared to him.He will be missed but always remembered. John Lloyd I knew Scott 20 years ago during my days as a Greek Peak Ski Instructor. It's been a long time, but I just heard through a mutual friend today that Scott died...and I wanted to offer my condolences to his family. Janet Papastamos
