His memory will live on in the countless stories shared by those who loved him, and in the enduring bonds he created throughout his life. Scott’s final journey will take place on Friday, December 5, 2025, at Stockton Crematorium, Bluebell Chapel, at 12:30 p.m. Family flowers only are requested, with donations in lieu to Bridge House, an organization close to Scott’s heart that supports individuals experiencing homelessness.

Following the service, family and friends are warmly invited to gather at The Buffs Social Club in Stockton to raise a glass in celebration of Scott’s life—a fitting tribute to a man who lived fully and loved deeply.We extend our deepest condolences to Scott’s family and loved ones. May they find strength in cherished memories and comfort in the support of the community that mourns with them.
