Walter Conrad
Scott
Mar 31, 1931 — Feb 25, 2023
Walter (Walt) Conrad Scott was born in Pocatello Idaho on March 31, 1931 to loving parents Kenneth and Mary Scott. Walt and his four brothers Gerald, Richard, Wayne and Mitchel developed faith, ingenuity, humor, discipline, musical talent, and creativity in the companionship of each other growing up. Into their old age they respected each other immensely and remained good friends and advisors to one another.
Walt attended Woodrow Wilson High School in Washington D.C. where he was class president his senior year. He played in a band and enjoyed playing the Tuba and Bass. His love of music composition and execution remained throughout his life, and in his last two decades he was a one man band on his synthesizer for "Grandpa and his Band of Virtual Musicians." He was at his best playing his music for all to enjoy. We are grateful to have it to continue to enjoy and remember him.
Walt completed his undergraduate education at George Washington University, majoring in Electrical Engineering. He went on to earn a Masters Degree from Massachusetts Institute of Technology. His education, dedication, and raw talent led him to enjoy many exciting careers such as engineer for NASA, co-founder of a successful management consultant company, and in his retirement he became a General Contractor, building over 70 homes in a few short years.
Walt Married his wife, June Langston, on August 5, 1954 in the Logan Utah Temple. They had four daughters and two sons as follows: Deborah (Debbie), Cynthia (Cindy), Stephen, Holly, Kristen (Kristi), and David. They raised their children in Silver Spring, Maryland and Loudoun County Virginia. Walt and June moved to Ocoee Florida in 2005 and lived there together until she passed in 2009. He was a loving father who cared greatly for all of his children. Kristi compiled these words and phrases that epitomize having Walt as a father and grandfather: Music, Motorhome, Computers, Biorhythms, Homework Helper, Fix Anything, Wood worker, Uncle Remus reader, Loudoun Clear, Home Builder, Problem Solver, Testimony, You Been Farming Long, Frugal.
Walt was a faithful member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints his entire life. He served in many church callings - missionary work was his favorite. He diligently taught and lived the principles of the gospel of Jesus Christ. He kept an eternal perspective as those who he loved passed before him.
Walt enjoyed good health throughout his life until he suffered a stroke and passed on February 25, 2023 in the care of his daughters. His love for his children and great sense of humor remained to his last days.
Walter is preceded in death by his wife, and mother of his children, June, his young son Stephen, his grandson Wesley, four brothers, and his loving parents. We feel joy to think of the reunion he is having with these loved ones.
He is survived by Ina, his caring wife of nine years, his five children and their spouses: daughter, Deborah Barzee and son in law Nolan, daughter Cynthia Fisher and son in law Edward, daughter Holly Owens and son in law Daniel, daughter Kristen Smith and son in law Michael, and son David. He is blessed with a large posterity of 20 grandchildren and 47 great-grandchildren
