Camping, gardening and spending time with his family were Scott's favorite pastimes. He loved working in his yard and taking in the view from the front deck. He also loved duck hunting, and generally being outdoors with his dog Mandy. Scott was a loving husband, father, brother and uncle who was patient, caring, and never complained. He was loved by all who knew him and will be greatly missed.
