Scott Gwash Obituary

Scott Alan Gwash

Scott Alan Gwash, (68) passed away on July 17, 2025 after a courageous battle with Cancer. Scott was born in Virginia, Minnesota on January 18, 1957 of Eleanor Beutz Gwash and Paul Gwash. Scott lived in Albuquerque from 1959 until his death, leaving many friends behind.

Scott was a graduate of Manzano High School, and spent his working life in the automobile maintenance, paint and body business. He was a strong person who overcame many challenges in his life, earning the respect and admiration of all who knew him. His parents predeceased him, but he is survived by his two brothers, Greg and Kris, and many cousins, nephews and nieces. He also leaves behind his long time companion, Angela Poole and his beloved Blue Heeler, Kiddy.

The family would like to express our gratitude and appreciation for their love and kindness to Compassus Hospice and Inhora, a hospice home in Albuquerque. At Scott's request, there will be no services.
