Stuart Scott Didn't Lose to Cancer... He Transcended It

Posted Jan 18, 2015
Stuart Scott managed to live life on his own terms in the face of devastating illness.

Thank you Stuart for having the courage to walk that sacred path and show the rest of us the way -- your light will shine on. (Huffington Post)
