Scotty was a graduate of Mulberry High School and the University of Florida and served as a U.S. Marine. He was a true Gators fan and yelled at all of the games. In 1968, he started a business, Air Components & Equipment, with his friend F.M. Wilkerson. He was elected President of the company and continued to run the business for forty-four years.
He loved to play golf and once served as President of the Buckhorn Springs golf course. He also loved to hunt and fish and was an excellent open water diver. At his request, Scotty’s ashes will be scattered into the Gulf. We will miss him but we know he is in a better place.
Please, no flowers. Donations to Rotary’s Camp Florida, 1915 Camp Florida Rd, Brandon, FL 33510 in remembrance of Scotty are appreciated.
