Scott was born February 1, 1950, in Milwaukee, Wisconsin to Harry and Edith (Domack) Wurcer. He graduated from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in 1973. He was named a fellow for his technical achievements and leadership at Analog Devices. He was passionate about his work, was a pioneer and made many contributions to his field.
Aside from his numerous innovations at work, he was an artist of many forms including Chinese brush painting. He loved world cuisines, the culinary arts, and had an eclectic taste in music.
He was an avid traveler, golfer, and enjoyed spending time with his family and dogs. He possessed a gentle nature, an open mind and an innate intellect.
Scott is survived by his wife of 37 years Madeline Kleiner, his children Rachael of Cambridge, Claire and her husband Scott Gilbert of Saugus, two stepsons, Joshua Goldshlag of Arlington and Jonah Goldshalg and his wife Michelle of Vienna, Virginia and three grandchildren, Maris, Hagen and Elin as well as a brother Steve and sister Susan.
Scott was a loving husband, father and grandfather. He will be greatly missed by the many friends and colleagues he has made over the years.

I was a junior colleague of Scott at the ADI Wilmington office. Although I asked him dumb, basic questions at first and wasn't very versed in his art of analog design, Scott always patiently helped me and suggested ways for me to progress and learn. He was a very kind individual and, yes, a very talented one too. May he rest in peace and his family find solace in the outpour of well wishes and thanks from Scott's colleagues.
