Scott S. Spaulding

Scott S. Spaulding, 69, passed away unexpectedly at his home in Yalesville, Connecticut on April 23, 2025. Scott’s family is deeply saddened by his sudden passing.

Scott was well known for his special skills as a painter, a trade he learned from his father, and what he did for most of his life. He was a meticulous, highly sought-after professional.

Scott always loved sports and in his younger days he played lots of baseball and spent a lot of time on the golf course. Another one of his favorite pastimes was seeing live shows, especially country music artists.
