R.I.P Scott Kornfield
Scott Kornfield was killed in Colorado on Memorial Day 2005. (for more information, please go to http://www.triathletemag.com/story.cfm?story_id=9976&pageID=1728)
I went to Camp Spofford in Spofford, NH every summer for nearly 16 years of my life. I had the privilege of knowing Scott for about 10 of those years. He was a good friend to me and to many other Spoffordites. While I have not spoken to Scott in many years, I am devasted by this loss.
He and I were the same age. Like me, he was a newlywed and a big sibling (I am a big sister to Jamie and he was a big brother to Todd). We weren't friends at first--in fact, he was the first boy I ever punched--but we became friends, once I got over my incessant crush on him, and he realized I wasn't all that bad :)
R.I.P Scott. You will be missed on earth and loved in heaven, of this I am sure. Please remember Scott's wife, his mom and dad and his brother in your thoughts and prayers.

I just fell in love immediately with this beautiful young man's smile and brightly lit eyes... I am quite shocked to read this and wish his family my best regards to add to the other many prayers to them at their loss.. Thank you for sharing such a stunning picture with us all... what an exquisite man he was....
Thats very sad. Ill be praying for his family.
That's a sad, sad story. The family, the friend and even the driver will never be the same.
Kelli, thanks so much for your posting. I too grew up with Scott (he was my cousin)...and every few days I browse the internet to look at clippings to remind me of him...and the way he impacted others (the good and the bad..ie..the punch). I miss him so much....and I am so glad to hear that he is in the heart of others.
-Lauren
