Scott’s oldest niece, Greta (17), is raising money to name a cancer research grant after him:

By donating to LLS, you support the many facets of LLS’s mission work from investing in groundbreaking research, providing education and support to patients, and advocating at the state and federal level for legislation to help those living with cancer.”
