On Monday, July 15, 2024, surrounded by his loving family and faithful canine companion, Buddy, Scott Edward Gilpin passed away peacefully at the age of 60, after a valiant battle with pancreatic cancer. Scott was born on March 30, 1964, in TN to Ed and Betty Gilpin. He was a graduate of University Christian High School and later obtained a degree in finance from the University of Florida before embarking on a successful career in banking.
Throughout his life, Scott had a deep passion for sports, particularly football and golf. Every summer, he cherished family trips to the Keys for fishing, boating, snorkeling, and unwinding at the sandbar.
Scott's devotion to his family and friends was unwavering; his love knew no limits. He approached life with faith, hope, courage, happiness, loyalty, strength, generosity, compassion, and love.
Scott is survived by his loving wife of 36 years, Christy; his daughter, Sarah; his loyal dog Buddy; his father Ed; his brother Todd; as well as various relatives in Kansas and Tennessee. He is preceded in death by his mother, Betty Gilpin.
His absence will be deeply felt by all who had the privilege of knowing him but his memory will forever live on in the hearts and minds of those who loved him dearly.
