Scott Wilson Obituary

Scott Thomas Wilson
September 24, 1954 - May 28, 2024
Scott Thomas Wilson passed away unexpectedly of natural causes on Tuesday, May 28, 2024, at his beloved Turkey Canyon Ranch, in Bandera County. He was born on September 24, 1954 at the Nix Hospital in San Antonio, Texas to O.G. and Estelle Wilson. Scott was a 1972 graduate of Alamo Heights High School and attended Southwest Texas University. He adored his wife of 41 years, DeeAnn.
Having spent 35 years in the family car business, Jennings Anderson Ford, Scott was an incredible businessman who valued his relationships with both employees and customers. He loved to sell Ford trucks and had so many customers that became lifelong friends. He cherished his car dealer friends and relationships he made as he was involved in many different positions in the Texas Automobile Dealers Association and the San Antonio Automobile Dealers Association. He was a pillar in both the San Antonio and Boerne business communities and always believed in keeping business local. He was the biggest cheerleader for Boerne and spent much of his time promoting the Boerne Chamber of Commerce and was on the Economic Development Corporation Board for many years. He was also a longtime member of the Alamo Kawanis Club. He was a devoted member of First United Methodist Church of Boerne where he was also an usher.
In his retirement, he enjoyed playing golf with his buddies, especially at Boot Ranch in Fredericksburg, where he made many memories with friends and family. He served on the Boot Ranch Board of Directors and the Development committee. His favorite place, where he went every day to the "office", was the ranch. He loved his longhorn cattle, whitetail deer, driving in his Polaris with his beloved dog, Ace, power washing, leaf blowing and enjoying a glass of red wine & cigar outside with DeeAnn to watch the sunset and throw the ball for the dogs.
The Lord was his compass and the most important thing in his life was his faith. He always gave the advice to "do the right thing" and to "pray about it". His love for his wife and family was steadfast and unwavering. He was the best grandfather, and his five grandkids loved their "Dude." Not only was he an incredible Dude, but he was the best husband and dad. His family adored him and could always count on his wisdom.
Scott is survived by his loving wife, Dee Ann; his daughters Amy Berg and husband Josh and Courtney Pruitt and husband Grant; his five grandchildren Wilson and Lorraine Berg, Georgia, Grant Jr, and Hallie Pruitt; his brother Jerry Wilson and wife Cheryl; sisters-in-law Carol Jean Salkeld and husband Joe and Linda Kay Bowman along with numerous nieces, nephews, and cousins.

To Jerry Wilson:
Thank you, Jerry, for letting me know the rest of the story about Scott and the baseball tryout. I do not recall Coach Samuels telling me that he already knew Scott. I was just impressed with his ability as a ball player and thought he would be a good teammate, which he certainly was. I have thought a lot about Scott lately, and I am sorry for the loss to you, his wife, daughters, and the rest of the family.

Sorry to hear about Scott. Great man. Many great memories of working for him during my 13 years at Jennings Anderson Ford. Had I known of his passing I surely would have attended his funeral. Doris and I have lived in Spring for the past 12 years, so we did not hear about his passing until after the funeral. Peace to you and all your family. He will be missed by all who knew him.

To Jeff Miller;
I'm Jerry Wilson, Scott's brother. I don't know if you remember me, I graduated 1969 and played Varsity Baseball and Football. You are right on about the Pony League draft. The coach you spoke of was Perry Samuels who was a family friend and his son Gary played with Scott and I in Little League. He wanted Scott on your team pretty badly and after the 1st day when the boys registered, Perry told Dad not to bring Scott to any more Tryouts. He wanted Scott on his team and didn't want any other coaches to pick him before he had the chance to.
He assured Dad that Scott would be his 1st pick.
Thanks for remembering a pretty good story and for being Scott's friend.

I had not seen Scott since our SWT days of the 1970s, but I always remember him fondly. He was the catcher on our Pony League team. I never told him, but I am pretty sure he was our first-round pick in the draft. I was a year older than Scott, and I went with our coach for the tryouts when Scott was 13. We were both quite impressed with Scott, and I was happy that we were able to get him for our team. It sounds like Scott did really well in life. I am proud of him, and I wish would have maintained our friendship over the many years.
