Scott Black Obituary
Publish in a newspaper
Scott graduated from Mason High and joined the Army the same day serving three years at White Sands Missile Range as a Military Policeman.
He settled on a career he loved for 32 years as a Game Warden for the state of Texas. He was stationed in San Angelo, Iraan, Fort Davis, Encinal and finished up in Menard, Texas making many lifelong friends along the way.
Scott was a relentless coyote hunter, decent fiddle player, happy to show you his all-around cowboy buckle, average golfer and proud dad and Opa following his son Jesse and grandkids Nickolas and Kim to all kinds of events. Then he bought a motorcycle and he and Linda, his wife of 57 years, road off to fun and adventure where he won an Iron Butt award for riding 1000 miles in 24 hours.
Sunday found him in his pew at the Methodist Church before racing off to Abuelo's for lunch and soft serve.
Left to enjoy the memories are wife Linda Oestreich Black, daughter Stacy and Mike, grandson Nicholas and Brittany, granddaughter Kimberly and Josh, great grandkids Noah, Eden and Olive. Also sister-in-laws Brenda and Becky and numerous niece and nephews.
Waiting for him were his Mom and Dad son Jesse, brothers, Larry and Don and nephew James.
Services are pending with Leatherwood Memorial Chapels of Brady.
