Scott’s first love was for his Savior, Jesus Christ, and this was evident by the way he lived his life. He was a devoted family man who laid down his life for his wife and kids. He loved watching sports especially his children’s events. Scott had a passion for animals and nature. He was known for being incredibly kind, patient, and giving. He was quick to listen and slow to get angry. He also knew how to relieve a serious moment by an unexpected burst of comic relief.

A celebration of life will be held Sunday, February 25, 2018, 5 pm at Tree of Life Church with Pastor Don Duncan officiating. Memorial contributions may be given to the following charities: Tree of Life-Missions or With God.
