He attended Believers Chapel for many years where he served wholeheartedly. Scott was a gentle, warm, and loving person.  He enjoyed fishing, hunting, and gardening.  He loved people from all walks of life and felt deeply for those less fortunate.  He was unashamed to proclaim his hourly need for Christ and leaves a legacy of faith, compassion and craftsmanship.  He will be greatly missed.
