Scott Randall, son of Donald Dean and Barbara Jean (Grimm) Goos, was born April 7, 1964, in Omaha, Nebraska. Scott grew up near Treynor, Iowa where he was baptized and confirmed at Zion Congregational Church. He graduated from Treynor High School in 1982. He then attended Creighton University and studied Psychology and then at Kansas State University where he completed a degree in Interior Design. He was a member of the American Society of Interior Designers.

Scott first worked with Richman-Gordman in Council Bluffs and then at Olsen-Blackburn in Wichita, Kansas. He then took a position with Apria in Kansas City where he managed staff in Kansas City, the Philippines and India, regarding sleep studies and its supplies.

Scott enjoyed home and garden design as he always had an eye for layout and such. He was one of three brothers raised on the farm southwest of Treynor. He loved showing cattle and hogs, winning Reserve Grand Champion Hog at Aksarben. Scott also won many art awards both locally and at the Iowa State Fair. Scott was featured in multiple magazines for his interior design work and highly regarded in the industry. He enjoyed going on trips with his nieces and nephews and lavishing them with gifts on holidays and birthdays.

On Saturday, April 15, 2023, Scott passed away very unexpectedly in Elk Horn, Iowa, at the age of 59 years and 8 days.
