It is nice to be able to see Scott. I thought about him most of the day yesterday. I hope that he knew how much we all liked and admired him. He was very open minded about everything and would always listen to somebody's else's point of view. Yep, he's definitely going to be missed!!!
Love,
Kay

I'm so very sad and shocked to see this. I never got to talk to Scott personally or e-mail him but I always liked his intelligent posts and his sense of humor. My prayers and thoughts go out to his family and all his friends here. Scott, may God welcome you safely home...

This is so strange, but that is nearly exactly how I had pictured Scott's appearance in my mind. I don't know why, really... just something about his very dry sense of humor, and his "brainy-ness."
Stephanie, thanks for looking up that obit. Valedictorian, Yale... this doesn't surprise me at all. He was, indeed, a very intelligent man.
Tom, do you happen to know how old Jonathan is? I had the sense that he is still quite young... early teens, perhaps? |

Hi Wilderness Woman
Hmmm ... I know Jon had a few years on my Rachel, who's just turned 13 this August, so I'd guess him to be about 17-18 by now !
I remember Scott once posted a picture of Jonathan, behind the wheel of a sailing boat, but I've searched about the Forums and came up empty? (probably lost during the many board update switch overs)
Susan Boulton may know for sure... I'll ask her next time we chat!
Take care, Mac

What a nice thing to do, Rich! Dedicating the Mohicanland Forum Board to Scott is very fitting. (See the main page of the Forum.)
Well done, Sachem.

I would also like to join the tribe in giving thanks for the nice dedication to Scott! Very fitting indeed !
I got the following message from an 'ol friend of Scott's, Susan J Boulton, who writes:
"Hi Mac, How are you doing?
Me not too bad, this thing with Scott has knocked be back some what.
I have tried to register at the LOTM site to thank them for dedicating the site to Scott, but for some reason it won't allow me. I keep hitting agree and it keeps throwing me back to the main page.
Will you thank them on my behalf it is a wonderful thing.
Sue...."

I will miss Scott's humor and wonderful passages he posted. I'd like to send my prayers to his family in this difficult time.
I know this is late, but the previous reply wasnt posted for some reason.
God speed Scott.

My most deepest and sincere thoughts and prayers to Scott's family; I am saddened that his "aim small, miss small" signature won't grace the pages any more. I enjoyed his posts. Again, my deepest sympathies to his family. My prayers are with you.

His comments and ideas were interesting and insightful, and his absence will be a loss on this board.
May he go to a better place.

Just wanted to acknowledge this day, August 24th, as it's been two years now that we have been without the kindred spirit of Scott Bubar !
They say as long as you remember a person they are never really gone, so with this in mind, I raise my glass to parted friends, and cherish the memories of days past !
Till we meet again, Rest in Peace, my friend, Mac
*Here is a thread I posted last year on some of the boards Scott frequented (I may have missed posting it here ?)
Remembering Scott ... and the Molly Stark !
This coming August 24th will mark the one year anniversary of the loss of our good friend [URL=http://www.myarmoury.com/talk/viewtopic.php?t=2182]Scott Bubar[/URL]!
(alias Sikandur here on NetSword, and Deacon Frye on the Pyracy Pub)
I did not want to let this date pass without once again mentioning how much we miss our old friend, and to remember fondly all the great discussions, comments, and humor, that he brought to the many boards where he participated !
Scott had a soft spot for cannons .... and he seemed to take more than just a little interest in the period that founded his country, the American War for Independence !
It is with that in mind that I bring you (and Scott, as I’m sure he’s reading along here :-) the following !
Last weekend the family and I took a short trip up north, via Rt. 13, and passed thru the New Hampshire town of New Boston. I’d been through New Boston many times in the past, actually having partied there sometime in the mid-80's .... (but that’s another story) ....but never put two & two together to realize that this was where the famous [URL=http://www2.new-boston.nh.us/Pages/NewBostonNH_About/mollystark]Molly Stark [/URL] cannon resides, given to the town by none other than New Hampshire’s most famous soldier
[URL=http://seacoastnh.com/framers/stark.html]General John Stark[/URL] !
[URL=http://www2.new-boston.nh.us/Pages/NewBostonNH_About/mollystark]History of the Molly Stark Cannon[/URL]
“The famous Molly Stark cannon, captured from the British at the battle of Bennington (VT) by New Hampshire troops under the command of General John Stark on August 16, 1777, has for many generations been the proud possession of the citizens of New Boston. She is two hundred and twenty years old, having been cast in Paris, France, in 1743. Old Molly, as we affectionately call her, has had a most glorious history, serving under the French flag once, the British twice and the American twice.”
–excerpt from “The New Boston Artillery Company and Molly Stark" Clement A. Lyon 1963
In 1743, the cannon and a mate were cast in Paris, ornately decorated with a shield and crown flanked by American Indians armed with bows and arrows. Both cannons traveled across the Atlantic Ocean to protect the citizens of Quebec. The British forces at the Battle of the Plains of Abraham captured both of the cannons in 1759. Once again, both cannons changed hands when they were surrendered to General John Stark at Bennington in 1777.
“the fruits of the victory were four pieces of brass canon, several stand of arms, eight brass drums, a quantity of German broadswords, and about 700 prisoners.” Our gun, Molly Stark, was one of these four pieces, it being a four pounder.”
The Molly Stark cannon (named affectionately after General Stark’s wife) served in defense of the British siege at Detroit, Michigan, during the “Second Revolutionary War” the War of 1812, and was actually recaptured by the British after the surrender of the city. As fate would have it, the Americans captured Old Molly from the British once again, this time at the Battle of Fort George during the same war.
Prior to his death in 1822, General John Stark removed old Molly from storage at the first arsenal built by the United States (in Watervliet, New York “The Arsenal City”).
Old Molly was retired from active duty and presented to the New Boston Artillery Company of the 9th Regiment of the New Hampshire Mi |
