It's a strange feeling, but I am relieved that he was able to make the decision he felt was best for him.

Rest easy, Scottie.

RIP Scottie. So sorry you got dealt the cards you did. I never met you in person but wish I had. Go in peace knowing you fought like a warrior and touched and inspired a lot of people to be better humans. If that's not a successful life I don't know what is. Until we meet on the other side moto friend.
I am at a loss of words. Sumdood, I couldn’t have said it better if I could think straight right now. Not the news I wanted to see this morning. At least Scottie is free from the pain and restraints of his earthly body. RIP moto brother.

Sorry to read this, but Scottie is no longer in pain. His parents can remember the happy times and not see their son suffering every day. Scottie tried, he fought, and he decided what was best for himself and his family. He is a badass and I am glad to call him a friend. He will be missed by many!!! May peace be provided to his family!

There is an old motohead in Long Beach Washington sheding a tear for you Scottie .not sure if its a tear of joy, your suffering is finally over. Not sure its really a tear of sadness, I am going to miss you!! Perhaps its a little of both. Rest in peace my friend!

Hate to read this. Didn’t know you Scottie but was well aware of your presence here on the forum. From all the kind words people have to say about you, you’ll be sadly missed. RIP Scottie

Well Scottie, I just don’t have the words. All I know is that after all these years and who knows how many forums, posts and messages, that my world, and many others, just got a whole lot emptier.

I’m glad you are pain free now.

Godspeed old friend. I’ll miss you. 😢

Be nice if somebody could post Scottie's story from 'the day'. I looked through the HOF and didn't see it there, but feel it should be!

Wow, I knew of Scottie's injuries and that he was in pain but I didn't realise how bad it was. This is absolutely gut wrenching. There's a reason assisted suicide is legalised in places, at least he's not suffering anymore. RIP Scottie you legend.

In a world where it's really easy to throw sh*t and hide behind a keyboard, Scottie was consistently one of the best-natured guys here (Vital). He will be greatly missed. RIP man, hope you are roosting it up heaven right now.

Hurting. He was a great person, a warrior, and he had a positive impact on many many people.

God bless you brother OC Scottie. My love, and good vibes are with your spirit, family and friends.

Oh man this is the first thing I read in the morning, I don't want this to be true.....Sad

Never met him but Scottie was a great guy just from knowing him from here....

Really going to miss him, I know he was related or really good friends with former racer Chris O'Neal if anyone has contact info for him please let me know as I met him at Washougal one year and would like to talk to him.

I have no idea the pain he felt and he endured a LOT so as much as I hate to I support his decision.

RIP Scottie you will be missed, but NEVER forgotten...... 😢

It's a page back. I think. If it's the one I think you mean. Someone said they couldn't read it but just tap and zoom if you can't.

Correction: on page 2. And it's a link to it. Slipdog posted.

I could never even imagine going through life in constant pain. I'll never judge someone in that position. Life really can suck. RIP.

RIP Scottie.

You clearly were a positive influence on those around you.

It is so difficult hearing these stories of the battles that are faced by these warriors.

To those who have shared stories similar to Scottie’s, you have my utmost respect.

I was not fully aware of the battles you face.
