I, too, lost a close friend recently: http://www.numbnuggets.com/2008/12/lost-good-friend.html, but especially http://www.lostechies.com/blogs/jason_meridth/archive/2008/12/10/in-memory-of-nelson-montalvo.aspx. This isn't about my loss, but about yours and letting you know there's someone else out here that knows how hard it must be right now. Know that you and his family will be in my thoughts and prayers. Matt,

Wow…I just found this post and even thought I don’t know you, my heart goes out to you and Scott’s family.

I, too, lost a close friend recently: http://www.numbnuggets.com/2008/12/lost-good-friend.html, but especially http://www.lostechies.com/blogs/jason_meridth/archive/2008/12/10/in-memory-of-nelson-montalvo.aspx.

This isn’t about my loss, but about yours and letting you know there’s someone else out here that knows how hard it must be right now.

Know that you and his family will be in my thoughts and prayers.

I never met Scott, but have been really touched by everything I've read about him and his family. I'm crying (I'm such a softie) and praying with you.

I first met him through church and I've watched him grow into a man that I greatly admired for his integrity and sincere true friendship. Scott had been on my heart for a couple of weeks before he died and I kept intending on calling him to try to get together but my schedule kept getting in the way. I've never regretted not doing something so much in my life as not making the time and following my heart to pursue some time with him. I heart breaks for Holly, his 4 wonderful kids, his Dad and Mom and all of the rest who loved Scott and were so greatly touched by his life. "You've entered into your rest buddy, Well done good and faithful servant..." Scott was dear friend of mine for over 20 years.

I pray that God will continue to use Scott to touch many lives. Scott & I were good friends in grade school at Portland Christian. I got married 17 years ago & moved to California & then Michigan. I haven't seen him for many years, but can't seem to stop the tears from falling & the heartache that I'm feeling right now (I just found out today). You know someone must be really special if they can still have an impact on you (me) so many years later. I just wish I could have stayed or gotten back in touch with him & met his wife & kids. But we will see him again someday in Heaven. I can't even imagine what Holly, their children, friends & family must be feeling. My heart aches for you & will keep you in my prayers always. Even though I have never met Holly or their kids, please know that I love you! Thank-You, Greg (Remsburg) for what you said. I pray that God will continue to use Scott to touch many lives.

My husband, John Resnick, and I are still reeling from the loss of our dear brother. He led an exemplary life of service in the glow of God's love. While I understand the need to ask, "Why?" I encourage those feeling the loss to ask, "What now?" I am so thankful for the time I was given to enjoy Scott. He was a part of every important event in my life from the time I met his brother at 16 to last Friday night. We can honor his life by loving and supporting his family. We can keep his memory alive for his children. We can be beacons of love to those around us. Tragedies make no sense--it's what we do after that counts. God's love is still real. He can still comfort us and help us comfort others. May God bless all of you, Lyndsey Resnick Thanks for the kind words about Scott.

I wonder what series of events caused this to happen. I believe every thing happens according to Gods will. I agree with the things Greg Remsburg said, yet I'm just having a hard time seeing the good in this situation. I just keep thinking "Scott is dead what do you mean he's dead?" Being an Aviation student myself I feel this hits really close to home. He was a young guy and has a family, why would this happen? Well Matt I can assure you that my family and I will be praying.
