Scott Leroy Abbott

Scott Leroy Abbott, 57, of Washington Utah passed away on Saturday evening, August 17, 2019.  He was the oldest of 10 children of Douglas Claude and Gennilee K. Abbott.  Scott graduated from Dixie High School in 1980 then went on to serve in the Utah National Guard for 10 years. He married his High School sweetheart Karen Cowley in 1982 and together they raised their two children Tori and Kacy Scott Abbott. 

Scott had an immense love for the outdoors and especially hunting.  He always looked forward to the hunting season and being able to be around all the family.  Perhaps one of his first and longest loves though, was that of the Miami Dolphins football team and the Chicago Cubs baseball team. He was a true fan!

Scott was preceded in death by his wife Karen Cowley Abbott, his son Kacy Scott Abbott and younger sister Kimberly Abbott Patterson. He is survived by his daughter, Tori (Jack Bradford) Abbott and grandkids, Serena Sargis, Seth Sargis and Skylee Bradford.  His younger siblings, Jeff (Jen Vaiasicca) Abbott, Becky (Bryan) Smethurst, Chris Abbott, Matthew (Krystle) Abbott, Gena' (Justin) Tripp, Nicole Hogue, Emilee (Josh) Faulkner and Mason (Lexi) Abbott.  He is also survived by many nieces, nephews and cousins. 

There will be a Celebration of Life at Hughes Mortuary Sunday evening, August 25th from 3 to 5 PM.  The family will greet friends and family from 3 to 4 PM and then there will be a short informal service starting at 4 Pm that will include sharing of memories of Scott by friends and family, all are invited.  Please come and help us celebrate Scott's life. 

"If it kills me to leave you
Then I will gladly die
Because with you I'm only surviving
And I have been destined to fly!"
