EVANS MILLS, NY – Scott A. Hyneman, 62, of Golden Drive, passed away peacefully on Monday, February 24, 2025 at home, under the loving care of his family and Jefferson County Hospice.
Per his wishes, no public services will be held.
Born on July 14, 1962 in Watertown, Scott was a son of the late Harold F. and Mary J. (Hogaboom) Hyneman. He was a 1980 graduate of Watertown High School. In his early career, Scott worked as a direct support professional for developmentally disabled individuals with JRC. He was later a Head Start bus driver with Freeman Bus Corporation, as well as a truck driver for Economy Transport in Massena. Most recently, he was a Watertown City bus driver.
On June 9, 2023 he married the love of his life, Karen Cecot in Watertown.
Family was most important to Scott, but being a Minnesota Vikings fan was a close second. He had an incredible sense of humor and touched the lives of those he met with such positive energy. He will always be loved and missed.
Survivors include his loving wife, Karen; children, Ryan (Tara) Hyneman and Christopher (Tammy) Hyneman; stepchildren, Jennie Cecot (Jason Price), Jordan (Danielle) Cecot, and Kelsey Webster (Jordin Hazelton); 19 beloved grandchildren who were the light of his life; a loving brother & sister-in-law, David and Karen Hyneman; several nieces and nephews and great-nieces and nephews; his former wife, Deborah Manchester; and three amazing, dedicated friends, Sheila, Bob, and Karen.
Scott was predeceased by his parents, Harold and Mary Hyneman, a sister, Debbie who passed at birth, and two brothers, Kurt and Neil Hyneman.
In lieu of flowers, memorial donations in Scott’s memory may be made to a charity of one’s choice.
