Scott R. Eldridge, 57, passed away on February 17, 2022. Scott was born on September 13th, 1964, to Judy (Waddell) and Charles Eldridge. Scott was the fourth generation to run Eldridge Welding and Machine starting in 1977 at only 13 years old. He embraced his work and enjoyed a successful career gaining the respect of his employees and loyal customers. Everyone knew if you needed something fixed, Scott was your guy. Scott loved boating, jet skiing, snowmobiling, and watching his favorite team, the San Francisco 49ers but his all-time favorite passion was his Corvette.
Scott is loved and will be greatly missed by his family and friends. Scott is survived by his wife of 26 years, Brenda, daughters, Emily and Amy, both of Des Moines; father Charles (Freda) Eldridge of Ankeny, IA; sister Carol (Larry) Eldridge of Arizona and many nieces and nephews. He was preceded in death by his mother Judy Eldridge.
