To Scott & Connie
In memory of the love you share
~you're in the arms of an angel...may you find some comfort there~

Connie's beloved Whirlwind

December 8, 1968 - June 27, 1999

Scott's Princess

One of Scott's Poems...
"Why"
As I sit in this chair all day long
I try to figure out what went wrong
So I asked the Lord above
with all my heart and love
Why did it have to be me...

The Lord never did answer me
and I'm still waiting true
Lord I want to walk again
tell me what to do...

I used to sit and wonder why
until i would break down and cry
what did I do, what did I say
I asked the Lord
when I prayed...

It came to me the summer
late in the season
I know why it happened
I know the reason...

I made a wrong choice
in choosing my wife
to show me the way
The Lord changed my Life...

Now I've found another
I know that it's true
I was already in this chair
When she said I Love You...

Lord watch over me
Till the day that I die
I Promise to always Love Connie
And never say goodbye...

Messages of Love From Your Friends

~Harley Hunk~

"In Memory of Scott,
We your fellow moderators at Chatropolis, feel a deep sense of loss. Although some of us did not know you well, we each carry within us a certain bond that others out in the outside world cannot understand. It must be felt and experienced to grasp the concept of union, bond, and support. You will be sorely missed by many. I know our hearts go out to Connie at this time of great loss. Please know that our hearts and thoughts are with you at this sad juncture in your life and also please know that we care about you and love you. Life is preciously short, we must nurture and care for each other the best we can along it's often times bumpy roads."
Love,
~Carolyn/The Redhead~

"I can't say anything about this cause there is nothing to say.....except......HUG"
~Lady Toad/Juanita~

"Looking back through the ICQ history and reliving conversations we've all had, it is so clear that Scott and Connie are soulmates and even though their time together in this life was short, they will be together again someday. It often seems that the good ones are taken from us way too soon while the bad ones won't seem to go away. Connie, Scott loved you more than life itself. You made him so happy and our hearts are breaking with you. If there is anything we can do to help you through this time of sorrow, please let us know. We love you and we will stand beside you all the way. Scott, you have left us with many wonderful memories. Memories of laughter and jokes (especially about Connie and Sheryl). Your sense of humor (although often twisted *L*) will live in our hearts forever. Like you told us yourself.."When you're good, you're good....and when you're bad to the bone, your name is Scott!". Joe believes that when you pass on and you stand there to be judged, that you will only be asked one simple question....."Was the world a better place with you in it?" Well Scott, hold your head up high and give them a big "YES" for us, for the world WAS a better place with you here. Thank you for the laughs. We will never forget you."
~Joe & Sheryl~

Thank you for the wonderful times we shared..the laughter, the tears. I will carry you in my heart for ever...You are the best....."
Love ya,
~Karen.....Skye~

"There are no words to express the emptiness I feel inside right now! The only thought that can bring me peace is knowing that you are in a better place and no harm can come to you now. You are truly an angel and have touched our lives in such a special way. You will never be forgotten and your love will go on to touch others through those beautiful little boys of yours. As you shine down on me from up above, I will carry you with me forever in my heart.....I will love you forever and ever!!"
~Your shining star*~

"My heartfelt sympathies to the family and friends of Scott (WhirlWind) and to Connie, the love of Scotts life...May God be with you at this time of great sadness and bring you through all this sorrow......May God Bless you Connie, and bring peace to your heart..."

"I have thought and thought and there is nothing I can say to make it better. I don't know why things happen the way they do but I know one thing. Each day, each minute is precious and the time Scott spent with Connie was the happiest in his life. I know because he told me so. He now walks in Heaven but his footsteps here on Earth were not empty. He was a gentle, kind man and she is a gentle, loving woman and I am happy that I had the pleasure of knowing both. Connie, I wish you love, strength and a quick recovery. You'll always be in my prayers. *tight hugs*"
~LadyJane~

"I was not able to get to know Scott (WhirlWind) that well. I do however, remember the times in training when he would come to me for help, and advice. It made me feel kinda good that he asked for my knowledge. And as I said, I had not known much about him, but hearing the news put an empty spot in my heart. Even just talking to him only a few times still created a bond of brotherhood as a Moderator, and none-the-less, as a friend. We should all feel fortunate for the gift of life, because it can end at anytime.
Make the most of everything,
but above all, make everyone your friend.
Because nobody knows
when their time will end.
He will be sadly missed."
~Bart/PeaceKeeper~

I am standing upon a seashore. A ship at my side
spreads her white sails to the morning breeze
and starts for the blue ocean. She is an object
of beauty and strength. I stand and watch her
until at length she hangs like a speck of white
cloud just where the sea and sky come to mingle
with each other.........

Then someone at my side says: "There, she is gone!"
"Gone where?"...................Gone from my sight.
That is all. She is just as large in mast and hull
and spar as she was when she left my side and she
is just as able to bear her load of living freight
to her destined port. Her diminshed size is in me,
not in her.. and just at the moment when someone at
my side says: "There, she is gone!" there are other
eyes watching her coming, and other voices ready
to take up the glad shout:
"Here she comes!"........................and that is dying."

The Angel I Never Met
Pale Horse's last goodbye to a friend

It was late last fall, as I recall
He the entered the room I was in.
A few said hello, a couple or so
To this man who was known as Whirlwind

I added my hi, and he made his reply
And we chatted for few in this little den.
After a brief stay, he went on his way
And our paths would never cross again.

I had heard through the vine that he was doing fine
His days filled with love and his joys.
Nothing would ever replace , his smiling face
And all because of Connie and his two boys.

Isn't it grand when you hear of a man
having love in his life and his heart?
A woman at his side, who was soon to be his bride
Nothing would ever keep them apart.

But then came that day , I'm so sorry to say
A Winged One left us only a memory of where he stood.
We'll never understand, why that fateful hand
Seems to steal the young ones that are so good.

So Scott, you're at heavens gate, you won't have to wait
And that my friend is a sure bet.
So with heavy sigh, I now add my goodbye
to the Angel I Never Met.
~Pale Horse~

Unknown Hero
As everyone knows 2 of our MODS were in an accident recently and unfortunately one of them did not make it. Jedi Princess and Whirlwind known as the MOD couple Texas Twister were unfortunate enough to be in the wrong place at the wrong time. A couple of kids, who had snuck out from their parents house and decided to risk everyone's life in there path by drinking and driving down the wrong side of a divided highway, hit our MODS head on driving an estimated 100 miles per hour. Whirlwind, who unfortunately had decided not to where his seatbelt, was thrown through the windshield and sustained injuries that took his life. Jedi Princess, who was the only survivor of the accident which a 32-year veteran of the Highway Patrol said was the worst accident he had ever seen, was extremely lucky. Not only had she decided that it would be a good idea to wear her seatbelt. Not only had she been lucky enough to that she had dropped her 4 beautiful children off at her parent's house and they were not in the van with her and Whirlwind. Because of the courage and selfless act of one unknown hero. Because of the accident Jedi Princess was stuck in the drivers seat her legs were trapped from the front end of her van being crushed in on them. A fire had started in the van and she was stuck. Someone came out of nowhere and was able to take Jedi Princess out of the van and move her to safety just in time as flames engulfed the van and exploded the gas tank. Who knows the thoughts running through this mans head as he risked his own life for a complete stranger. All I know is this man is a hero in ever since of the word. After the Police had arrived and began the horrible act of having to clean up the accident. The gentlemen got into his car and left. No name was obtained, no information received on who this man was. I am putting this page here in the unlikely event that whoever and wherever this person is, he might see this message to him. Where all of us like to believe that in the same situation they would do the same thing and God pray that we never actually have to prove it. You have proven yourself to be a hero. So whoever you are and wherever you may be I just want to say....Thank you
