Comments: On September 1, 1998, Scott Stanley Forde {1961-1998] was buried according to his
wishes in a newly created two acre family cemetery named  'Scott's Grove.'  It was named after
Elk Horn Grove in Shelby Co., Iowa  where Scott grew up and played as a child.  The family
cemetery has been  duly deeded and filed as a cemetery at the County Clerk's office in 
Hempstead, TX, Waller County.  A great deal of work is being done to create  a park-like setting
in the cemetery that adjoins the family ranch. Scott died after a five month battle with leukemia. 
He leaves a wife and  two children, and an incredibly large number of persons that recognized his
 unique goodness and deeply mourn his loss.
