This morning I woke to sad news. My friend Scott Gruenwald passed away last night. The paranormal world has lost its court jester. I’ll miss playing Scott’s ukulele with him at conferences, I’ll miss the funny music videos he used to post, I’ll miss the calls and texts we’d have about haunted places in California, and I’ll miss his laughter and fun attitude. The world could use more like him, especially now that we’re down one. I have no doubt Scott will continue his fun and mischievous ways in the next life. My prayers go out to his friends and family right now.

On September 17, 2023, our beloved patriarch, Scott Grunewald made the journey from this world to the next. Scott was larger than life and always willing to lend a hand to his friends and family. Like many of us who have found ourselves in this situation, the family was not prepared for such a tremendous loss. His family will not only need help with medical expenses and final arrangements but also for the loss of the income Scott provided for his family. This GoFundMe has been set up on behalf of his family to help with final expenses as well as provide them with a cushion to adapt to their new reality as they try to pick up the pieces and navigate life without him. Dealing with the loss of him has been such a difficult and stressful situation so if we can help the family with some of their expenses that will alleviate some of the stress that comes with loss. To honor his memory and say our final farewells we are asking for donations at his time. We love you all, and there’s nothing you can do about it!!

In the face of this tragic loss, we are reminded of the fragility of life and the importance of cherishing every moment with our loved ones. Scott’s legacy is a testament to the enduring power of laughter, and he will forever remain in our hearts, a cherished beacon of charisma and humor.
