Scott, you are missed!  Last time I saw Scott was up on the stage where I gave him a nod (can't shake a drummers hand while he's playing) during the Ron Asheton Tribute at the Michigan.  Rest In Peace Brother!

It is truly sad to lose a loved one to death, as humans we have no control over it...However Almighty God has, and soon he will get rid of death and the things that cause it. Yes life eternal for loyal and faithful ones who listen to God and do his divine will, have the opportunity to live as long as God lives... forever.

Years ago I traveled to Ann Arbour and found the Ashtons phone number and called and actually got to talk to Scott he took the time to talk to a complete stranger about his days with the Stooges and Sonic Rendezvous Band he was so down to earth and friendly you will be missed Scott for not only your music but for your kindness and generosity  thank you for giving me   one of the best moments of my life and some of the best music ever recorded

I had the opportunity to see Scott live and meeting him 1978 ,a truly great and kind person and his drumming always knocked me out. My condolences to the family, his groove will last forever.

My condolences To The Family of Scott Asheton.

I pray you find comfort from Gods word found at Rom.10:13. For everyone who calls on Gods name will be saved.

My brother, John Cole, was one of Scott's good friends growing up in Lakewood Subdivision. I always loved Scott cause he was always nice to me and my friends.....and he was so good looking with the prettiest blue eyes I had ever seen. I am glad to have known Scott through all the phases of his life and please know he will be missed by all who knew him. My heart goes out to Kathy and his family, may he rest in the peace he deserves. Prayers for you all,  Charlene (Cole) Obara

Nobody pounded the skins like this man. I idolized him as a kid.

When I was in High School, Iplayed in a band that absolutely revered the Detroit music of the late 60's that wasn't Motown.
The Amboy Dukes, SRC, Stooges, Frost, 3rd Power, and, Savage Grace, made up a lot of the music we listened to, and, even played.
One of those songs was a Stooges song, "I Wanna Be Your Dog.
It is a very simple song, but, we delivered it with all the ferocity of a charging rhino, the way it was intended to be played.
I lost my interest in playing their songs, but, never lost sight of how integral they were to the Detroit music scene at that time.
All current/former fans of The Stooges are sad for the band & their families.

I'm going to miss you Scotty. Thank you for so many wonderful memories.

May you find some comfort in God's words found at Matthew 5:4 where we read that "happy are those who mourn since they will be comforted"

(Hosea 13:14) From the power of the Grave I will redeem them; From death I will recover them. Where are your stings, O Death? Where is your destructiveness, O Grave?

Thank you for sharing a part of your life with us.

May your Fond Memories help to ease your sorrow. (John 6:40 & Lu 23:43)

I send my deepest condolences to your family. May God be with you in your time if grief.

My sincere condolences to Scott's family. May you find comfort from family, friends, and especially the God of all comfort. "he supports those who are falling and raises up all who are bowed down". (Psalm 145:14) may God sustain you until the day he will swallow up death forever.

My sincere sympathy to all. Keep encouraging one another and building one another up, just as as you are in fact doing.

With deepest sympathy to the family at this most difficult time.  Be assured that God will help you cope with the heavy weight of your loss.
Psalms 68:19

May the God of all comfort be with the family and friends at this time.

My sincere condolences to the Asheton family.  At times like these, 'God can give us "power beyond what is normal," so we can keep going from one day to the next. (2 Cor.4:7) May your memories of Scott continue to bring the family comfort at this difficult time.

Asheton Family:  My deepest sympathy on your loss.  His influence will live on for many years to those of us who were fans.  He will now have the opportunity to work with Ron and Dave again.  Scott was cool.  May his memory and music be eternal.

My deepest sympathy to the family. May the "God of tender mercies and all comfort" help you through this difficult time -2 cor 1:3.

Sorry for the loss of your love one. I send my condolences.

Loss isn't shared but a memory can be, your beautiful brother Kathy teased me something silly at Forsythe. Makes me smile.Peace be with you.

Rest in heaven Scott with your Brother Ronnie. I knew both of them.

I send all my condolences. May Jehovah be with your in your time of grief.

My deepest condolences to the family.
May the God of loving kindness, comfort
the family during their time of grief.
(Psalms 23)
