See Phil Scott R.I.P.
This week Debbie Scott, Phil's wife sent out a note and photos that were very inspirational and tell more about what kind of guy Phil was to everyone, but also what kind of guy Ron Morris is.
As many of you know, Ron Morris, who was the silver medallist in the polevault at Rome in 1960, owns a track and field supply house in California called On Track. Well, Debbie recently received the new catalogue from Ron with a note telling her how much Phil meant to him. Phil was so important that Ron wrote his own memorial to Phil and featured it in his new catalogue. This may be a first in marketing history, but it also shows what a tight knit community track and field people are with each other. Ron describes some of Phil's traits as well as anyone has done in the last three months. Here is what came to us from Debbie Scott.
"Good morning all... I thought you might enjoy seeing something I received. Not everyone gets a tribute written up about them in a yearly catalog. I received several copies of these in the mail the other day. As if having the president of the company dedicate his letter to Phil wasn't enough, they also have a page honoring him, and his picture in the background on another. It gave me very mixed emotions... incredibly proud on one hand, but so sad on the other! Just shows what a truly loved guy Phil Scott was! Feel free to pass this on to anyone you think might be interested."
"Hope you all are doing well!"
Debbie Scott
Well done, Ron Morris. ( ed.)
