Friends fondly remember Scotchie

You know, my dad was Toms best friend. And his son ryan was my best friend since birth. my family grew up side by side with his. lake trips, horseback riding, you name it. And think about what they r dealing with. ryan and his brother andrew had a birthday the day after their father died. I may be only 17 years old, but Im old enough to realize that you need to grow up. Their father was not lost. He was ripped from their lives forever by a twisted and selfish individual. But that is besides the point. I stayed at their house for four days straight and witnessed first hand their unbearable grief. Nothing will ever bring their dad back. they r left with memories now. and theresa has no husband to help her raise her family. So whether or not you knew or were close to gus, give the scotchies supporters the same respect u ask. or dont be angry when u dont get it. And everyone is correct. unless u have a fond memory of tom ur posts are inconsequential and superfluous in this forum.

i went to school with ryan and we got our communion together. Our faimilies are really close and all of the scotchies are in my prayers. If Mrs. Theresa is reading this i just want you to know that i am thinking about you and the all the boys and hopefully we will see each other soon! Mr. Tom was an amazing man who will be missed!

I live close to the Scotchies and their son, Thomas, goes to my school i just wanted to say that on the day it happened they told us right before school was over. If you saw everyone standing out there waiting to be picked up. Everyone was crying. Even the Kindergarten class. That how much the Scotchie family is loved at our school
