My sincere condolences to the Smith family. I was perusing the Chatham obituaries on line and I couldn’t believe my eyes when I saw the passing of Scott. We live in Phoenix, Arizona and news from Chatham is rather scarce. Scott and I were childhood friends back in Stacy Subdivision. Scott was incredibly energetic and always made us laugh and smile. Our fathers were both welders and we were also good friends and neighbors. Scott and I even attended St. Agnes school which in itself has many memories.
Again, my most sincere condolences to the Smith family.
Kindest regards,
David Rowden

To Monica, Christie, Shadd, Cathie & Al and your families;
I am truly sorry to hear of your loss of Scott. As one of my Dad's loyal employees at Chatham and District Ambulance throughout the years, he was deeply integrated into our whole family as a great friend who loved to laugh and make conversation. Although I haven't seen him much over the years he makes up part of my memories of visiting my Dad at the ambulance base back in the day. I hope your own great memories of Scott will help ease your grief in time. Warmest Regards, Laurie A. Langlois

In 1995 I started as a Paramedic in Chatham Kent. It was always a great day when Scott was working. Always a laugh and jovial attitude when you were around him. A pleasure to know and work with. He will be greatly missed by many.
