Scott Arnold Olson

My dear, dear friend Scott was one of the very most important people in my life for about 20 years. He always had my back and knew I had his. I always loved how he greeted and parted with me with what I called his "bromance" handshake/hug combination. Of the two of us, he was usually the first to say "I love you man" NOT just "love you". Big difference. I always stepped back and patted him on the chest then. The first time I did that he asked what that was about. "Are you just trying to feel my impressive pecs?" "No Buddy I just like patting that big, warm heart of yours". Sadly it has now taken him from us far too soon and broken mine. Scott was such a good, honest, generous guy. Always the first guy around ready to help with even the worst of things I got myself into. I know he is NOT standing in front of St. Peter trying to think of a poem using the rhyming word "Timbuktu" in order to get in. Those of you who have known and loved him like I did, know exactly what the funny joke was that he told about that! His sense of humor was second to none. The gate was open and waiting for him. Earth cries and heaven smiles. God speed my dear friend Scott. My life will never be the same without your bigger than life persona. Gone but NEVER forgotten or long from thought. See you soon, Buddy. Jim Matras

So sad to say goodbye to my dear old friend, Scott. We became friends in 7th grade and" our group" was inseparable throughout high school and until he moved to Wisconsin. We had such good times at your parents trailer water and snow skiing! Will always remember that great smile and happy go lucky attitude. We'll miss you oly!
