Looking for Stories about Scott Crossfield

Scott Crossfield was a member of Chapter 186 for many years. He spent many Saturday mornings at the Chapter House swapping stories with the Saturday morning gang. I’m sure there are many stories that can be told.

Scott’s daughter Sally Crossfield Farley has formed the Scott Crossfield Foundation. Please check out the web site. While there, take a few moments and record one of your favorite memories and stories about Scott. Share a part of his life with his family and viewers of the site.
