Scot will be forever remembered by his parents Norm & Dodie, sisters Michelle (Tyler), Mandi (Dave),brothers Jeff (Marilyn), Shane & Quinn. Also remembering Scot are his nephews Andrew (Kerry), Luke (Shannon), Colby (Janine), Nik (Amey), Tyson, Theo & Johannes, nieces Recene (Jason), Raven, Cassandra (Eri), Sadie & Destiny along with numerous Aunts, Uncles & Cousins. Scot was predeceased by his mother Gloria, brother Brad, grandparents Rose & Jack Dixon, Katherine & Joe Syczylo & Gordon Stark.
Scot was a very private person but stayed well connected to family. He was always looking for a new challenges and was happiest when he was outdoors. He used his natural wood working talents to make treasure chests for his nieces, wood carvings for his siblings and even building a 25,000 sq ft warehouse with roof top parking for Summerhill Winery.
In his youth he learned to fly a glider, raced his Chevy Nova & rail car at the Gimli racetrack and helped his Dad race horses at the Assiniboia Downs winning a stakes race with his beloved horse Viking Debut. Scot loved to ski and in his 20's moved to Kelowna to be closer to the mountains and fell in love with the city and lived there until his passing. Scot's most recent employment was working for Steven at the Summerhill Winery which hoped to have a memorial for Scot but Covid-19 has interfered.
We would like to thank Neil Bardal Funeral Home (Winnipeg) and Springfield Funeral Home (Kelowna) for all their assistance in bringing Scot home. We are forever grateful to Todd &Val Valgardson for all their help in Kelowna and for being our spokesman. Cremation has taken place.
