Scott loved spending time with family and friends. He was able to enjoy the years of his retirement doing just that. From Packer Parties to Badger Games, Scott was there to cheer on his favorite teams with his favorite people. He was a lover of holidays, hunting, fishing, and everything Wisconsin. He loved vacationing with his wife and family in Jamaica, blessed to have enjoyed it on last time in March of this year. Scott was very social and enjoyed many of the local restaurants and taverns over the years where he will be greatly missed. His door was always open for a cup of coffee or a cold beer. His love, conversation and friendship will be missed by many.
