Scott Jablonow, a beloved son, brother, and father, passed away peacefully on June 14, 2024. Born in Clayton, MO, he excelled in sports at Clayton High School. Scott worked with his father, Louis, and uncle Julian at their family-owned Mid-America Theaters. Later, he relocated to Scottsdale, Arizona, with his wife Ellen and daughter Carrie, establishing the successful real estate company Ladue Development.
Scott was a lifelong golfer and a former member of Westwood Country Club. He enjoyed water skiing at the Lake of the Ozarks and was an avid Master Scuba Diver, exploring the world’s oceans. His culinary talents delighted friends and family, and he will be remembered for his sarcastic sense of humor, love for movies and nature documentaries, knowledge of music, fine art, and world events, and his appreciation for classic automobiles. A loyal and selfless individual, Scott consistently went above and beyond to support his associates and friends. He is deeply missed by his mother, Eleanor (Komm); sister, Julie (Black); and Ellen and Carrie Jablonow.
The family expresses gratitude to the staff, nurses, and doctors at Barnes-Jewish Hospital, particularly Dr. Marcos Rothstein. Contributions in Scott’s memory can be made to the Scott Jablonow Kidney Endowed Fund at FoundationBarnesJewish.org or mailed to The Foundation for Barnes-Jewish Hospital, 1001 Highlands Plaza Drive West, Suite 140, St. Louis, MO 63110.
Scott’s legacy will endure through the many lives he touched and those who loved him. May he rest in peace, and may his memory be a blessing.
A private family service was held.
