What is the purpose of the Scott Adams Celebration of Life?
Afternoon, I'm Greg Gutfeld. I'm lucky to be a friend of Scott Adams. We're here to celebrate the life of Scott Adams, which is incredibly easy to do. Anybody who knows him has been touched by his life and your life has been made better by Scott Adams. Although this is the first day I found out his middle name was Raymond. I don't know how to feel about that. I'm more upset that he never told me his middle name was Raymond. I have so much to talk about Scott, but I'm speaking later and I don't want to just shoot my load right here. Probably not a good adjective to use, but it is amazing how prepared I am to talk about Scott because Scott gave me the tools to talk about life and people and friendship that I wouldn't have been able to do before.
extremely grateful to be here and to see all of you. I'm incredibly grateful for the life that I have and my family and my job. I'm grateful for those things. And a lot of those things came because of my friendship with Scott. So ultimately, beneath my gratitude for my life is my eternal gratitude for knowing Scott. But I'll get into that later. Right now I want to introduce the legendary Just an amazing person, Shelly Adams, who will do her welcome remarks. Thanks.
I want to thank everyone for being here and for those joining us in livestream. In Scott's last few months, he would say to me, I really didn't know until now how many lives I've impacted. I am so grateful that I got the opportunity to see it. I wish I had a little bit more time, but I've done my job. I'm ready, and now my wish is to keep my legacy alive by those I impacted, passing my lessons along to others.

His wit, humor, talent, kindness, and insights on life endeared him to millions and millions of people and taught his many fans, readers, and listeners how to look at the world in a very different way. He was a very different guy, but brilliant. I will never forget that Scott was with me from the very beginning right at the very beginning. He knew what was happening. He got it.
