Scott was a loving husband, an amazing dad, a brother, and a grandpa. He was loved by so many and touched so many lives. Scott attended Blue River Valley Schools. After High School Scott went to work and he was a jack of all trades. There wasn’t anything he couldn't do. Scott worked for several construction companies and also worked on several pipelines for many years. He was a member of the Local Union # 103 International Union of Operating Engineers since 1991. He was currently employed for Fox Contractors Corporation of Ft. Wayne IN and worked as a Foreman, but he was more than just a foreman. Scott would continue to help the crew wherever he was needed and lend a helping hand. He loved bluegrass music and enjoyed playing his banjo.

Scott was a Godly man and loved the Lord. He attended Faith Chapel in Knightstown. He loved hunting and fishing. He also enjoyed helping anyone in need, including family, friends, neighbors, always putting others' needs before his own. He loved his tractor and running all kinds of heavy equipment and was an avid collector of small-scale heavy equipment.
