Scott was born on October 1, 1962, in Peoria, IL.
He grew up in Deer Creek, IL, on the family farm and attended Deer Creek Grade School and Deer Creek-Mackinaw (Dee-Mack) High School, Class of 1980. He then attended Illinois State University and graduated with a B.S. in Agricultural Business.
While growing up, he worked on the family farm and helped out with his Grampa Basil's BBQ business. After graduation, he worked for the Illinois Department of Human Services in Pekin, IL.
Scott had active roles in local churches and ministries, starting with leading various youth and young adult Christian groups. He managed the video, sound and implemented internet streaming of his church's services. He produced two Christian music CDs with local area artists. He served as a leader in the last two churches he attended.
Scott leaves a legacy of always helping others and giving selflessly of his time and talents, especially to those less fortunate. He will be loved and remembered for his unique humor, his quick wit, quoting movie "one-liners" and his love for Star Trek.
A private burial will be in Hillcrest Memory Gardens in rural Morton.
