Scott Edward Frederking passed away on September 20th, 2023 surrounded by family. He was born on June 16th, 1956 in Anchorage, Alaska to Edward F. Frederking and Beverly June "Gog" (Fox) Frederking.
Scott was a 1974 graduate of Mt. Vernon High School in Indiana where he was salutatorian of his class and a National Merit Scholar. He graduated Murray State University in 1978 where he earned his Bachelor of Science in Political Science and History. He was a member of Alpha Tau Omega fraternity.

Scott had a lifelong career with the State of Georgia, working in the areas of audits, budgets and finance, often working with the Governor of that time. He retired in 2020 after almost 40 years.
He was an avid reader, especially historical books and volunteered at Bass Middle School as a mentor which he loved doing. Scott also volunteered at the polls and felt strongly about voting rights.
