Scott (Scotty) was in many of my classes at TJ. Really, really good person. I remember laughing and goofing off with him during study hall. We were friends at school but never got together outside of school. I regret that now. Cancer sucks. I have it myself and just lost my wife to it. Just hang on to the memories. They're what's important now. I'm glad I still remember Scotty Pust.
I remember Scott, his brothers and their mom and dad from back in the ‘70’s: wonderful memories of riding dirt bikes on the trails behind their home, picnics - swinging from the rope at Ohiopyle - spending holidays together, just spending time together watching tv or hanging out in their driveway. Their home was the gathering place for people from all over the area. The Pust’s were always genuine, generous and always warm and welcoming.
I remember Scott doing daredevil tricks on hos bicycle, riding off the back of a flatbed truck, Evil Knievle of Gil Hall Road!
When Jim was taken way too soon, I remember how the brothers all came together to take care of Rose and each other. Scott took a great interest in Dougie, who was youngest, called him his “Little Buddy.”
You are and always have been wonderful people. Though years have passed, I still love all of you, think of you as family, which is how you always treated me.
My prayers and deepest sympathies are extended to each of you in yet another family loss.
But the loss is only temporary. You will all be reunited in Heaven one joyous day.
May you feel the comfort of God surrounding you.

Scott you were a good soul and your peeps at 8th Avenue Place loved you.
