Scott enjoyed his leisurely time with his children and grandchildren. In his earlier years, he was active in both Varsity football and hockey. He liked watching sports and playing cards. In his parenting years, he spent many, many hours traveling and watching his daughter play in softball games. He never missed one of her games. He became a stay at home parent and referred to himself as “Mr. Mom”. He enjoyed watching the daily NYSE trends and became a financial genius. He loved sitting outside on the deck, watching his family enjoy the pool, having cookouts with burnt hot dogs, and just spending time with one another.

Scott will be remembered for his witty sense of humor, financial intelligence,and his undying love for his family. Scott lost his dear wife, Patty, less than one year ago and there hasn’t since been a day when he didn’t talk about her. His wife, children and grandchildren were the light of his life.
