He then went on to study at the University of Saskatchewan in Saskatoon where he received a Bachelor of Education with Great Distinction and a Bachelor of Arts in Religious Studies with Great Distinction. He taught school at Rundle College in Calgary, AB. Scott loved to teach. He later moved to Toronto and lived with his very special friend Christopher Smith until his time of passing. Scott was a person who loved life. He loved to laugh, tell jokes and his smile was infectious. He had a great love of music and attended many concerts and open-air festivals.
