Alfred Willis Scott, 78, of Vero Beach Florida, died at home on October 30, 2023. Alfred was born in Forsyth, Georgia to his parents Peggy and Dan Scott. Alfred was born and raised as a hard-working cowboy and was a cutting horse champion. Alfred served as a Navy Seawolf during the Vietnam War. Alfred was preceded in death by his daughters Debbie, Jaime, and family. He is survived by his loving wife of 52 years Donna, daughters, siblings, grandchildren, great-grandchildren, and much-loved extended family.
Alfred was the epitome of a gentleman cowboy. He was a friend to anyone and willing to lend a hand even if he had nothing. Alfred spent most of his life working cattle, growing citrus, and making our community a better place. Alfred was known in the church community as a man of God and loved his family and friends. It was Alfred's wish that there would be a new organ for the church.
A Gathering will be Friday, November 3, 2023, at Thomas S. Lowther Funeral Home & Crematory from 4:00 PM to 6:00 PM. Alfred's service will be Saturday, November 4th, 2023, 10:00 AM at St. John of the Cross, 7590 26th St, Vero Beach, FL 32966.
In lieu of flowers, please consider making a donation to St. John of the Cross Building Fund in Al's name 7590 26th St, Vero Beach, FL 32966.
Arrangements are by Thomas S. Lowther Funeral Home & Crematory, Vero Beach.

Recovering from the loss of someone you love is just a very hard thing. Al was loved and appreciated by everyone who knew him-as a kind, caring and fun man. I was married to him for 3 1/2 years right out of high school. We had many happy times out on the ranch where we lived for most of that time. He so loved his work out there - horses, cattle, rodeos and all that goes with it. After returning from Viet Nam he was right back with the ranching and citrus growing. Thru the years he would share how much he loved his new family, Donna and his children and grandchildren were a very big and special part of his life. He will be remembered forever by those he left behind.
Prayers to everyone.
sincerely, Krissta Gale King

I was a teenager and was having dinner at his home with other church youth. I am sure he will be missed. Prayers and comfort for his family.

I´ve known Al since 1974 when I met him while working at the IRC Sheriff´s Department. Since that time I´ve enjoyed his company while flying with him in his airplane, fishing with him on his boat or playing golf. He´s what I would call a man´s man and he will be sorely missed by his many friends!

Al Scott was my father. My name is Peggy. His other daughter´s name is Liane. My dad was the one I always knew I could count on, for love and for guidance. He had an amazing sense of humor. His heart was pure and I feel fortunate to have had a parent who loved me like he did. I cannot express how much I miss him already. My father only had one wish in his final days, it wasn´t an organ for his church, it was to have his whole family together again. I wish I could have given him this.
My fathers passing has left a hole in my heart, but I will fill that hole with priceless gifts he left behind.. the love, the courage to do the next right thing, even when it´s hard.
I will miss you, dad, but you will always be with me.

I knew Al since I was a kid, always a good person to me and you could always count on a good laugh when Al was around. God has another good one with him now, and prayers to Donna and the girls.
