Scott Iverson Obituary
October 19, 1959 - February 15, 2025
With heavy hearts and joyful memories, we celebrate the life of Scott Iverson, born in Rock Island, Ill., on October 19, 1959, a son of Richard and Juanita Kappes Iverson. He passed away peacefully on February 15, 2025, in his home, surrounded by his loved ones. A devoted husband, loving father, beloved Papa to his grandchildren, son, and friend, Scott's legacy is woven into the hearts of those who had the pleasure of knowing him.
Scott's zest for life shone brightly through his passions. A true adventurer at heart, he found solace in boating, camping, and enjoying the outdoors. Scott loved riding his Harley, golfing with friends and especially fishing with his sons, grandkids and friends. Travel adventures with family and friends brought him immense joy.
Scott was also a disc golfer, a passion he enjoyed with his sons. He also loved listening to music with his family, particularly blues and rock.
As an electrician with the IBEW local 145 for 34 years, Scott was a master craftsman. His meticulous attention to detail shone through any project he worked on.
Scott is survived by the love of his life, his wife of almost 45 years, Pamela Iverson; sons, Joseph (Jenn Lin) Iverson, Justin (Emily) Iverson, and Jeremy Iverson; grandchildren, Ares and Alora; father, Richard Iverson; sister, Christine (Mike) Malm; brother, Matthew (Pam) Iverson; and a host of nieces and nephews.
He was preceded in death by his mother, Juanita Iverson; and his niece, Jennifer Malm.
