Scott was the most specialist person I have ever met, he was a very loving dad, husband, brother, son, uncle, grandson, cousin, nephew, brother in law, son in law, colleague, xbox gamer and friend to many many people.
Scott would help anybody and everybody in their times of need, or would just be there to catch you when you fall.
He was a follower of all football, especially Tottenham Hotspur. One of Scott's biggest achievements was being the proud co-owner of the Fernwood Foxes Youth Football Club. Scott found it very rewarding of how all the children have developed in all areas (not just on the pitch). Scott was well-pleased when Connor made his own decision to leave Fernwood Foxes for a former club that Scott had once played for (Newark Town) and would have been ecstatic to see Connor score his first goal in his first league game.
Up until the tragic time Scott was taken from us he was dedicated to raising awareness for the type of Cancer that he had (www.justgiving.com/scottwhittaker), Scott was undergoing treatment for 5 months at the beginning of 2009 for Trochanteric Bursitis, until in June he was correctly diagnosed with Synovial Sarcoma a rare type of Cancer which bare the same symptoms but Synovial Sarcoma is a terminal disease. From this moment all Scott wanted to do was raise awareness of this Cancer and 'live life to the full'.
Since being diagnosed with this Scott enjoyed many many days doing a variety of things some people ca only dream of, he went to the British Grand Prix, met 'the legend' as Scott would say Harry Redknapp, Kevin Bond, Daniel Levey, Aaron Lennon. He went to see Tottenham Hotspur twice, once in the boardroom where we were treat like royality, and also in the Executive Box. The weekend before Scott passed away we spent the weekend in London, where believe it or not Scott took me to see Grease the musical and I'm sure Scott was the loudest clapper in the theatre. This weekend was the most memorable for me and Scott was his usual joker all weekend especially in Madame Tussauds where he was so funny having his photo's taken with various 'celebs'.
Scott definetely lived his life to the full and stayed real throughout, he such a loving, caring man and will be missed by loads. We all love you loads and think of you always x
Scott, your name is still comes up in every conversation, and I always smile and remember the little ways you spoke out in Graham's defence or backed me up when he needed a reality check. You never took sides, I miss so much your honesty, even though I didn't always want to hear it lol. Time is said to be a great healer but the void is still as deep and the ache is still as painful, tomorrow your name will be written in ink on my skin, a tribute to your memory. I am so proud of you and of everything you stood for. We have been made strong by you, strong enough to support your lovely wife and amazing son, but we all wish so much this was all a nightmare and you were here to share christmas and a happy future together. Sleep easy babe, Love and miss you always xx Nik xx

My Brave Uncle!
So many thoughts,
in my head.
So many things,
left unsaid.
You left that day,
without a glance.
Never knowing God,
wasn't giving you a second chance.
What was in your head,
the last moments you had.
I hope you though happy thoughts,
and not sad.
No one can evertake your place.
Your image in my heart will never erase.
As you smile on me from up above.
My mind is still sad but my heart is filled with love.
I love you dear uncle you meant the world to me.
I'll always make you proud of me you will see.
Love You Lots Uncle Scott

Such a great friend
I moved away from Newark many years ago, but remember fondly the fantastic times we spent together and the many nights we stayed up playing sensible soccer until the early hours !!
I was lucky to be at your flat the night England beat Holland, and every time I see that game or think of that game, it thankfully always reminds me of you.
You'll be sadly missed Scott, you were a real gentleman and a great friend to have known.
Unfortunately this sad news didn't arrive here in Scotland until today else I would have travelled down to pay my respects.
My heart goes out to your family and loved ones who must be feeling unbearable pain.
Thinking of you mate.

PS. I ran my first 10k for cancer awareness last month in Manchester and raised £1000, the next ones for you Scott, and your picture will be on my back !
Dont think of him as gone away,his journey's just begun.
Life holds so many facets,this earth is only one.
Just think of him as resting,from the sorrows and the tears,in a place of warmth and comfort,where there are no days and years.
Think how he must be wishing that we could know today,how nothing but our sadness can really pass away.
And think of him as living in the hearts of those he touched.
For nothing ever loved is lost,and he was loved so much
love and miss you always bro....Lindsay xxx

♥ Heartstrings ♥
♥When those we love go away, they never really leave us;
they are with us now, wherever we are♥
♥Those whom we have cherished, live on forever,
for love wraps itself around the heart♥
♥Although it's difficult now,
someday beyond our tears and all the world's wrongs;
beyond the clouds and all that we can see and touch,
we shall all understand♥
LOVE

Waiting at the Door
I can’t explain so deep inside
The very fabric of my soul
Only a heart that grieves such loss
Can ever truly understand
It’s like you’re waiting at the door
Until a loved one comes back home
You feel a longing in your heart
When they appear the longing stops
But in a loss that never ends
You’re always standing at that door
You feel the longing in the breeze
So incomplete and never filled
I cannot find the words to say
Just what it’s like to want forever
Never seeing them again
Just always waiting at the door
