Lyndon Scott Obituary
Sonny loved hunting and fishing and was known as the authority on deer and turkey hunting. Nobody missed going to the barn on opening day to verify where he was going to hunt (and follow him there). He captained the football, basketball, and baseball teams at Deerfield High School. He was recruited by the Dodgers to play professional baseball, but decided to stay and work the family farm. But his greatest joy came from watching his children and grandchildren play school sports as he would never miss a game.
He enjoyed losing money at the casino, feeding his great grandchildren expired dated Oreo cookies from Market Basket, and any reason for the family to get together. For many years, he enjoyed poker night at the Sanderson's, and socializing with neighbors.
He leaves a sister Carol Giering, son Donald (Judy) and daughter Lynn Sibley (Randy) and daughter-in-law Elizabeth Scott. He also leaves four grandchildren, Jen Skroski (Joey), Derek Scott (Emily), Heather Ament (Kyle), and Sarah Bordua (Paul). He also leaves nine great-grandchildren, Emma and Lauren Sibley, Casey and Nolan Scott, Morgan and Charlotte May Ament, Finn and Leah Bordua, and Izzy Skroski, as well as many nieces and nephews. He was predeceased by his wife Frances (Skarzynski), son David, and grandson Chris Sibley.
