Scott Norwood Obituary

Scott David Norwood, 56, of Suwanee, GA and loving husband to Tammy A. Norwood unexpectedly but peacefully passed away on Sunday, May 15, 2022. Scott was born in Bethlehem, PA to David W. and Gail A. (Tierney) Norwood. Scott was a loving, caring and humble man who positively influenced many in his working and social life.

He graduated from Freedom High School in 1983 where he played baritone in the marching band which participated in the 1983 Rose Bowl parade. Scott entered the United States Air Force in 1983, where he served as a Refueling Maintenance Mechanic for eight years. Scott's military career covered service at the Air Force bases of Seymour Johnson NC, Myrtle Beach SC and Lindsey Wiesbaden Germany serving with 1st Combat Communications Group.

After his discharge from the US Armed Forces, Scott studied Mechanical Engineering at Penn State University. In 2018 he earned his Bachelor of Science degree in Business Administration from Liberty University. Scott focused his career on field service engineering with Immucor, Inc. (2000-2013) and Beckman Coulter, Inc. Life Sciences as a Senior Field Service Engineer in the Automation Division (2013-present). Scott mostly loved the "job" of Co-Founder and Co-Owner of Social Fox Brewing, Norcross, GA. where he could be found talking with customers about beer and the science behind it, giving tours of the brewhouse to anyone.

In 2008 Scott met Tammy. They were wed on February 2, 2012. During their years together, they shared many travel adventures, a love of photography and a generous amount of time riding their Harley Davidson motorcycle with their Loafin' Riders Motorcycle Group. Scott was very passionate about ice hockey. He participated in various men's recreational leagues and was a referee. Tammy shared in Scott's passion for hockey as faithful members of the Atlanta Gladiators family. Recently he became a founding member of the Atlanta Warriors Hockey Association, a group dedicated to supporting veterans through the sport of hockey. Scott & Tammy were members of 12Stone Church. They were pioneers of the Sugarloaf Campus where he was baptized in 2013 and served faithfully as a member of the Production Team.

Scott was predeceased by his mother Gail. He leaves behind his wife Tammy Ann (Suwanee, GA), father David Norwood and stepmother Sandra Craig (Whitehall, PA), sister Ruth Ann Glose and her partner Anthony Privitera (Phoenix, AZ), nephew Scott Allen Glose (Phoenix, AZ), niece Kimberly Held and family (Ft Collins, CO), stepdaughter Kara and son-in-law Jonathan Schulte and two grandchildren LilyAnn and James (Inverness, FL), and brother-in-law Tom Enlow (Athens, GA).
