KENNETH SCOTT
Kenneth Robert Scott passed away peacefully surrounded by his family on Saturday May 17, 2025 at the South Bruce Grey Health Centre – Kincardine, in his 82nd year.
Ken was born Aug. 3, 1943, the only son of Robert Scott and Christena Scott (née Smith).
Predeceased by his parents and cherished wife, Linda Scott (née Riley) in November of 2023. They were married on Dec. 30, 1977.
He was a loving stepfather to Alvin Storey and his wife Lisa Storey (née Grigg) of Kincardine. He will be deeply missed by his granddaughters Rebecca (Derek) Kilbertus of Port Elgin, Brooke Storey, and Marlise Storey (Zack Payne), both of Kincardine.
Ken will be remembered by many cousins, extended family, neighbours, and life-long friends from Kincardine Township.
He was a dedicated member of Knox Presbyterian Church in Tiverton, a proud member of the Tiverton Agricultural Society, and a skilled and accomplished master electrician and plumber who dedicated many years to his craft. Known for his hard work, integrity and kindness, many people would count on Ken to help them out using his quiet smarts to solve many plumbing and electrical issues, using innovation and alternative solutions.
When he wasn’t working hard for others, he was busy farming. He had a deep love for farming and cherished living on the 9th Concession of Kincardine, where he worked and lived all his life – a community that brought him great joy, fulfillment and many friendships. In his last two years, he lived at Tiverton Park Manor and Trillium Court.
