Time/ Larry (DAD) Strange how time works, it has been 2 years. Sometimes it seems like yesterday when this happened yet other times it seemd like it was more than 2 years, like an eternity. I miss Scott just as much today as I did 2 years ago when this horrible wreck happened. I miss him sharing his thoughts, dreams and hopes. I miss his jokes and laughter, along with his help around the place. In those quiet moments of watching TV and movies together, i miss his presence of just being there. How much can a person bear to lose? In losing Scotty our family lost so much. Scott was suppose to graduate this year, and I know I would have taken his Sr portraits. It was one of the things I was looking forward to doing. All the things you want to do for your kids to give them an advantage on a start in life comes to a screeching halt when tragedy strikes. All we have left than we can do is visit the resting place of Scott, and cherish the memories that have. It has been a goal of mine in these past 2 years that Scott's memory will not be lost, he touched a lot of lives in those 15 1/2 years and I don't want the memory of Scott to be lost, that would mean that he lived in vain and that his life was nothing. His life was very meaningful to us, He is our Scotty. He still lives in our hearts and his life will live on in our minds, thoughts and memories of him. Our love for Scott is not gone, we send our love to him in heaven and that love lives on forever. Love you Scotty, Always, DAD
I can never find the right words... / Joanne Davies I just wanted to say I am so sorry for your loss. Our stories are similar and reading your words brought so much back. I noticed you too are heading towards another anniversary and I wish you peace. Take good care of yourself. With Love and understanding Joanne xxx

1989-2005/ Renee Grinolds (Jamie Dawns Mom)
Scott's years caught my attention - 1989-2005 - as they are the years that my Jamie was on this earth too. Scott looked like an awesome child and I'm sorry for your loss. My Jamie was also a blonde who could light up a room with just her presence. I hope heaven is as wonderful as people say and that our angels have met, with smiles on their faces knowing that some day we will understand and we will be with them again. You are in my thoughts and prayers. Renee
Been So Long! / Kelly Utsey It's been so long since I have actually been on here. Not a day goes by that Scotty don't cross my mind! It's coming up on two years but still only feels like Feb 22 2005. This yeah in the town I live in up here in Wyoming my boyfriend's friend that I personally didn't know as well was taken due to an accident. I pulled up on the wreck going to school and all I could think of is the morning I found out about Scott. Tears filled my eyes just thinking about how much I missed him! Life hasn't been the same since that Tuesday in 2005. Through it all life, love and the pain of labor I will never forget Scott Allan Smith! Love Kelly Erin Utsey
Happiness is this State of mind that floods over into a state of being that my Family and I have been searching for 21 months now. We won't find it, it isn't really there for us. we have found moments in which we can make a smile and maybe even get a chuckle, but then reality gets a grip on us and we sink inot our depressed state that we cannot stay far away from very long. We miss our son and brother, Scotty. We love this boy Scott oh so very much. I say love as in the present tense not in the past tense, because I feel he is still with us, in our hearts, minds, thoughts, memories and souls. A great fear of mine is people forgetting Scotty and not remembering him or the memories of him. I talk of him to many people everywhere I go, not to draw sympathy, not to get pity, but to keep his memory alive. To me he was a great son and an awsume friend and I miss that so much. I missed watching the football games with him these past two football seasons and a series of many movies. I took his Band's Pictures and right toward the last few to be taken, i caught myself looking for him, (he should have been standing in line with the rest) but he wasn't there. I should be taking his senior pictures and laying out the yearbook page for him as a senior, not a memorial page. I wonder how much taller he would be now and who he would be dating. These are things that I constantly think of when I remember my Scottyboy. These are unfair circumstances that have happen to my family and it gives us an empty feeling and his mother and myself a feeling of having not finished a job that we set out to do and that was raise this young man and see him finish school and grow up. Nobody ever said Life was Fair. As far as I can see the word fair is just another 4 letter word that just means convenient. Will life ever be the same or as it was before? No, it won't ever be the same, it can't ever be the same with Scott gone. All we can do is Remember those good moments and times we had and share them with each other. As long as we do that, then his memory and love will live on in us. That is the only way that we can really have Scotty anymore. When our time is up, isn't that the only way that we remain here is by our memories?
Love you / Janet (Moma) Guynes (Moma) Hi baby. I hope you had a very happy birthday in Heaven. I don't write on this sight too much because it makes me cry. I just want to be able to hold you and kiss you and see your wonderful smile and your beautiful white blonde hair which I loved so much. Words can not explain how much I miss you and long to talk to you. I hope I can visit you in my dreams some time soon and be able to talk to you and find out what you have been doing and of course hug and kiss and hold you for a while. I Love you Scott. Happy Birthday. Love you Moma.

Happy Birthday, Scotty! / Dianne White/Mom Of Angel Nicholas (Someone who cares )
Today he would have turned 17 / Larry (Scotty's Dad ) Today is Tuesday the 22nd of August 2006, Exactly 18 months to the Day and Date that we lost Scotty. It also the Day before his 17th Birthday. Still my heart aches so badly as I feel it always will in missing Scott. I remember back when he was so little and as much as 6 and 8 months before his birthday he would remind me of when his birthday was, I always knew it and would never forget the 23rd of August and I knew he wouldn't let me either. As time grew closer to the Day he would still be reminding me. In mostly having to be out of town to make a living, I would always make a point to be home on that very special day and give him his gifft. Only one time can I ever remember not being able to be home on his birthday was when he turned 15 ( his last birthday with us). My vehicle had broken down with a busted water pump, coming back from laredo texas and I was stranded in a small town 50 miles away trying to fix it and find a mechanic. I called Scott and told him I was really trying to be home for him to celebrate his birthday with him. I remember working on that van till 4 A.M. the next morning in a motel parking lot on gravel until I finally surendered with defeat. I felt so disappointed and helpless because it meant so much to him. Scott meant so much to me, as to what he thought and felt, he was to me not only a Great Son but my Best Friend. Scott was always Loyal as a friend and as a son, he showed an Integrity I will never forget. In being an Ex-Marine I had learned our moto "Siempre Fidelis " which is Latin for "Always Faithful". So with the Life I have reamaining, I will be always Faithful to my true friend, Scott Allan Smith in upholding his memory in my upmost reguards, thoughts and prayers and will keep his memory alive and treasured on this web site and keep his Place of rest in as well maintained condition as possible. He would have recieved his Drivers License by now and would be in his Senior year in School, but those things we will now not be able to see him get or enjoy. So as my Gift to my Buddy on what would be his 17th birthday, I give Scott my Siempre Fidelis thoughts, love, repsect and honor. Always Dad
Senior Year and the memories of scott! / Chris Ashworth (bestfriend) As I sat in class at teague high school today thinkin of college next year and my new classes relationships and the things to come i could not help but think of one person scott smith. I tryed to come back to leon recently but because of living conditions i couldn't . I walked through the halls of leon high school the junior high and elementry school at leon a few days ago i began thinking of memories of scott. Elemenrty school i remember meeting scott for the first time shaking hands with just a small boy nor that i knew was gonna be my bestfriend, my adviser and my brother. Throughout junior high school i remember our lunch hour togeher sometimes we play the most stupidiest games as the girls that walked by would say but still we had fun and that memories. One memory that stands out in my mind was my last year to ever go to school at leon with scott was him answering the junior high office phone to say "scotts house of love" and hanging up so fast me just laughing as hard as one person could with scott with this deer in the head light look then him going "dude it was my mom". These and so many other great memories i try and hang onto and think of these days. Senior year is hard your getting ready to leave behind friends, sometimes family and the people you been around for years. I like to think that in me the things i learned from scott as a friend will help me this year and the years to come. Like his family and other friends i do miss scott horribley these days thinking i could have been with him on sr yr or taking to him about this 1st day. I think the best person who put it about scott and this yr would have to be my former girlfriend jessica saying that a part of scott will be with you sr yr prom grauation college and throughout life and will never dispear. Until that day we all get to meet with you again i keep telling my memories of you. you always be somehow a part of me that will never change and i never forget the short but great 7 years of friendship i shared with you!
Love Always
Your bestfriend
(Junior) Chris Ashworth
P.s. You always said go junior at the games you still do every time i step foot onto that marching field and i look up above to say go scott!
A beautiful rose for you Scott / Donna Medeiros (visitor) Hi Scott, read your dads posting, and just wanted to offer my condolences to your parents and entire family. You are a reason Heaven is so beautiful. May God Bless and watch over your family always ^i^
A Candle for Scotty / Margaret Daughter Of Angel Nellie Buonpane (Someone who cares )
Here is a candle for Scotty, who's light will always be shining brightly.
I Remeber / Larry, Scotty's Dad (Dad N Friend ) I remember this Boy named Scott, that I called Scotty, He seemed to always have this smile that had an effect to turn ur frown upside down. I remember when he was little he would come in and watch me shave and I would take the blade out of the spare razor , smear some shaving cream on his face and watch him make funny expressions like I was doing to remove the shaving cream. I remember wrestling bouts and our matching of wits. I remember when he would come up with a funny thought or saying that would make me think or make me laugh. I remember working on his camaro together and the pride he had in it, I also remember when I needed help on a project around the house, i didn't have to ask for his help he was always there. I remember when this accident happened that I hated to see Tuesdays come because the accident happened on a Tuesday, I also remember dreading Saturdays because his funeral was on a Saturday. I remember wishing that this was a bad dream and it never would have happened. I remember so many great things about Scotty. I Remember saying " I wish I could have a day without the pain of losing my Son and Friend Scotty".(That was Today and everyday).
Its been over a year since you were taken from us. not a day goes by that i do not think of you and miss you. when i am feeling pain and sadness from the thought of loosing you i have to remember that god needed a special, caring and loving person to join him. you are a special angel in heaven one day we will reunite until then i want you and your family to know that i love yall and youand your family are in my prayers. i love and miss you Mary huckaby
Fathers Day without my scotty again / Larry, Scotty's Dad The Days don't get easier as they pass with the absence of our son Scotty. This day (Fathers Day) can be unbearable. Waiting at times to see Scotty come out of his room from a big adventure of Saving the world on his PS2, watching him play with his Dog niki, getting a witty comment from him watching a movie or tv show, riding with me down the road, working around the house together, or getting that unique gift from him on this day. Instead of any of the above things, I only have the memories to cherish, the tears to cry from missing him so much, and to know that I had the priveledge to help raise such a fine young fellow. I only wish that he could of least had some kind of chance to survive this horrible accident and preceed on with life. Scotty was so full of life and happiness. Without that happiness he shared of his life , i wonder how we can ever be happy again. I love this boy , and I say this in this manor, because I feel he is still with us in heart and soul, he will always be in our hearts and thoughts, so we will always be loving him. Thank you Scotty for always making me proud to be a Father and for you to be my Son. Love always, Scotty's Dad Larry
