Scott Bessette Obituary

Published by Legacy Remembers on Oct. 18, 2016.
Scott David Bessette, devoted father, husband, son, brother, uncle and friend left us all too soon on October 15, 2016 at the age of 52. Scott had a heart and mind like no other; a profoundly compassionate soul who displayed love and kindness to all who knew him. In conversation, his intelligence and quick wit were ever present as was his love for the Boston Red Sox, Bruins and Dallas Cowboys. When it came to the Red Sox, he always kept the faith and was ecstatic when they won the World Series in 2004. He was a lover of music and avid fan of The Dave Matthews Band. More than anything, he loved spending time with family and friends.

Scott was born in Houston, Texas to Doris and Raoul Bessette and moved with his family every four years throughout the United States, France and Taiwan. He attended high school at Taipei American School in Taiwan and graduated from Ramapo High School in Wyckoff, New Jersey. He earned his Bachelor of Arts in Hotel and Restaurant Management from Southern New Hampshire University. Throughout his professional career, Scott worked in the hotel, restaurant and travel industry and founded a successful mobile imaging business in 2011.

Scott will be deeply missed by his wife, Nicole Bessette; two children, Ryder and Ruby; parents, Raoul and Doris Bessette; brother Ronald Bessette and his wife Cathy Battistelli; sister Kathy Young and her husband, Mark; loving in-laws, Madeline and Bill Maglio; Michelle and Chris Grande; Danielle and Ryan Jenkins and nieces and nephews, Casey, Daniel, Erik, Jayson, Laura, Christopher, Cole, Avery, Greyson and Olivia. He was preceded in death by his sister, Anne Marie Bessette.

A memorial gathering will be held on Friday, October 21, 2016 from 2:00 pm until 4:00 pm, with a service to begin at 4:00 pm at Aycock-Riverside Funeral & Cremation Center, 1112 Military Trail, Jupiter, Florida 33458.

Scott was a caring, selfless person, always extending a helping hand to those in need. Memorial donations in honor of Scott can be made to the Bobby Resciniti Healing Hearts Foundation, 5379 Lyons Rd. #176, Coconut Creek, FL 33073 (www.angelbobby.org).

There are no words that can truly express how sorry I am for such a great loss. I pray for strength for you, Nicole. Your beautiful children will keep Scott here with you, it is a blessing. I only met Scott a few times, but I grew up with Nicole and he must of been an amazing guy to have her. Sending love to you all.

May you Rest In Peace Scott. Thank you for bringing such a smile to Nicole's face, for loving and caring for her so deeply, and for being such an amazing father to Ryder and Ruby. You are and will be sorely missed. May God bring healing to the Maglio and Bessette families.

Remembering my mischievous, energetic and loving cousin. He was always a sweet young man, making sure my mother always got his loving hugs. He left us too soon. But, in his life, it is evident that he touched so many wonderful friends and family. His legacy is his love for all of us. We are all better for knowing him. My prayers are with his loving family.

Scotty! I cannot even begin to articulate how I feel right now. You were always there to help me if I needed it over the past few years and I will not ever forget your support and friendship. Heaven really lucked out this time but we down here are definitely feeling a huge loss. My prayers and thoughts go out to your family and all the friends whose lives you have touched in some way over the years. I look forward to the day when I can see you again my friend.

Scott,
Our time upon this earth is so short and precious- yet still we seem never to make the best use of it. Our best plans & intent always seem to give way to this or that or become lost in the moment. I am grateful I was able to see you and speak with you recently and am sad that our plans to get together and catch up will have to wait until my journey in this place has ended. You and your family shall be in my thoughts and prayers and I look forward to seeing you again some day. Thank you for the love of a brother and the many Sunday mornings we shared on the beach.
Love & Light~ Peter
