A proud Ohioan, Scott had a deep and loyal love for the Cleveland Browns and Ohio State Football, faithfully cheering on his teams every season. He had a sharp mind and a creative spirit, which he expressed through his passion for computers, video games, and anime. Music was a constant companion in Scott’s life. He also had a soft spot for cats, and his love and care for his feline companions showed his gentle and kind heart. Scott is survived by his son Ryan Whitney; sister Debbie (Mike) Tyukodi; and father Byron Whitney. He is preceded in death by his mother Jean Whitney.
