Mr.King was a great man who helped our daughter in so many ways. He helped her learn to read and developed confidence in herself. He was kind and a gentle giant! Loved and remembered by so many children in Tanque Verde. Peace and comfort to the family.

Such wonderful memories of my childhood when we lived in Tucson . I'd spend weekends at aunt Mary and uncle Dick's home. I remember the twins and I would launch rockets, swim in the pool and watch bad Sci-fi movies eating PB&j sandwiches with not a care in the world . Tricia and Steve , I am sorry for your loss . Scott was the gentlest of souls , may he rest in peace.....

I grew up watching Rincon basketball and remember Scott and his brother as the twin towers. May you rest in peace. Condolences to the family.

Such a gentle, kind man. Always there with a smile and a practical joke to keep you on your toes. Seeing Scott grow through the years as he and his brother hung around the Rincon High School gym I was able to watch him grow to be a man of great heart. My favorite photo of Scott was the one where is walking down the hall Tanque Verde Elementary School hand in hand with a tiny student. Following in the footsteps of his parents may Scott rest in peace after years of medical issues he never complained about. The World will miss this caring, wonderful man.

He was a wonderful, kind soul whom I have known since I was about 5 years old, when his family built a home and moved into my familys neighborhood. He, and his brother were my younger brothers longest, finest friends. May he live forever in the memories of his friends, students and family. My tenderest sympathy to his sister Tricia, brother Steve, and to all their children. Love, Elisabeth Wittmeyer- Grey
