He is very well educated, and whether it is just offering advice or solving a problem, he is absolutely methodical and approaches everything with utmost integrity. You can always count on him and I still rely on his advice for my own grown children who are in professional school and college. A man with his caliber is more difficult to find these days and I am very fortunate to know Scott and his family all these years. He is always there with a helping hand."
