It is with great love and deep sorrow that we announce the passing of Scott Rand Farkas, who left this world on September 24, 2025, at the age of 64. Born on August 6, 1961, in Bellefonte, Pennsylvania, Scott lived a life filled with warmth, humor, and dedication to those around him. Scott devoted much of his life to broadcasting, where his energy and passion for storytelling left a lasting impression. His deep love of sports and jazz carried through every stage of his life. His quick wit and sharp sense of humor made him unforgettable to all who had the privilege of knowing him. He is survived by his children: Jordan, Forrest, Isaac, Mordechai, and Cleo, who will carry forward his legacy of resilience, laughter, and love. He is also survived by his father, Jerry, and his sister, Dahn, who will forever cherish his memory. Scott was preceded in life by his beloved wife and the love of his life, Mimi, with whom he shared two decades of love and partnership. In accordance with Scott's wishes, there will be no funeral service. The family invites those who wish to honor his memory to make donations to the ALS Association – National Chapter, a cause deeply meaningful to him and his family. Scott will be remembered not only for the life he lived, but for the joy he brought, the love he gave, and the memories he created. His presence will be profoundly missed, yet his spirit will continue to live on in the hearts of all who knew him.
