Raymond “Scott” West, 55, passed away on Saturday, June 29, 2013 in his Newport News home. Though a native of York County, he lived in many places during his eight year service in the Navy after his graduation from the Frederick Military Academy in 1975. After his honorable discharge, as a Vietnam Vet, he began a career as a Quality Control Inspector with Newport News Shipbuilding and celebrated his 30 year anniversary days before his passing. Scott was full of life and lived everyday to the fullest, even if it was just relaxing next to his pool or splashing around with his “little man” Chase.
Scott is loved and will be missed by his wife of 25 years, Christine West; son, Michael J. West ; daughters, Christy Russell and Tiffany West; 6 grandchildren; 3 great-grandchildren; mother, Helen Sadler West; brother, H. Frank West, Jr.; sisters, Rachel M. Cofer and Jola R. West; many nieces, nephews, and in-laws. Scott was preceded in death by his father, Hugh F. West, Sr.
The family will receive friends from 4:00 to 8:00 pm on Thursday, July 4, 2013 at Parklawn-Wood Funeral Home. A celebration of Scott's life will be held at 11:00 am on Friday, July 5, at the funeral home. Interment will follow at Parklawn Memorial Park.
