Scott Arrington Beecher

Born on October 21, 1949, in Baton Rouge, Scott spent his life closely tied to the community. He graduated from Woodlawn High School and earned a B.S. in Industrial Technology from Southeastern Louisiana University where he was a member of Alpha Tau Omega Fraternity. Scott worked in the copy machine industry service and sales until his retirement.

Scott was an Eagle Scout and also a musician who performed in several local bands for more than 50 years. Music connected him with many people throughout the Baton Rouge area. He was a kind, caring friend and neighbor with a wonderful sense of humor.

He is preceded in death by his parents, Walter Williams Beecher and Aileen Abernathy Beecher.

Scott is remembered by his sister, Jill Beecher Matthew (Jim) and his nephew, Brian Matthew, as well as by the many friends, neighbors, and fellow musicians whose lives he touched over the years. He will be remembered for the life he built in Baton Rouge, his longtime love of music, and his kindness and humor.

He will be deeply missed by those who knew him.

The family is grateful to Scott's friends, Eretta Perrien and Cherie Lewis as well as

Heritage Manor of BR and LifeSource Hospice staff for their compassion and care given to Scott.

A celebration of Scott's life will be at a later date.
