He loved kayaking, jeeping, watching his girls grow up, relaxing on a boat, and helping his family and friends. He took on so many roles, husband, father, and friend just to name a few.
Scott was known for his vibrant personality, kindness, helpfulness, humor, laughter, and his ability to talk to anyone and make them feel like he's known you for years. He brightened everyone's life in some way. He lived his life to the fullest, making himself available to everyone, and making everyone so happy in his presence. He has touched so many lives and will be dearly missed by his family, friends, and everyone who knew him.
