Michael Hansen Obituary

Michael Scott Hansen Michael Scott Hansen, 33, of Tallahassee, Fla., passed away Tuesday, January 6, 2009. Scott was born January 1, 1976, in Atlanta to Butch and Mary Anne Hansen. His mother preceded him in death. His passion for life and his independence will forever stay with everyone who crossed his path. Scott grew up in Roswell and Cumming, Ga. The youngest of four children, he quickly made his mark with an all-star smile, gregarious personality and love for all things fun. Scott's celebrity began with his arrival as the first baby born in Atlanta in our country's bicentennial year at just past midnight on New Year's Day. His star continued to shine through athletics in high school earning him many honors on the gridiron. Academic days complete, Scott began an award-filled sales-management career in the automotive industry. His most lasting gift to this world was the birth of his daughter, Taylor Leigh, on February 13, 2003. Scott is survived by his wife, Karen Peterson Hansen and daughter, Taylor Leigh Hansen of Tallahassee; father, Butch (Margaret Syribeys) Hansen of Pendergrass, Ga.; sister, Meg Hansen (Mike) Scaff of Cumming, Ga.; brothers, Bill (Kimberly) Hansen of Ft. Bragg, N.C., Dwight (Sherri) Hansen of Braselton, Ga., Peter (Vivian) Syribeys, Paul (Beth) Syribeys and Philip (Lauren) Syribeys, all of Atlanta, Ga.; mother-in-law, Carolyn Peterson of Tallahassee; brother-in-law, Bobby (Nancy) Peterson of Tallahassee; nephews, Charlie Peterson, Dave Scaff, Christopher Eagan and John Syribeys; and nieces, Claire Eagan, Bailey Peterson, Emily Eagan, Lexi Hansen Mackenzie Scaff, Margeaux Scaff, Marline Syribeys, Diana Syribeys and Jacqueline Syribeys.

How do you measure a man's worth? While I knew Scott for only 10 months during his time in Tallahassee, the time spent focused on his personal life, his professional accomplishments, his respect for his father, Butch, and his overwhelming love for Taylor, his daughter. May God bless you now and forever my friend.

May god bless you Scott Hansen. I lived in the same dorm, 4 rooms down the hall from Scott at West Georgia. What an energetic and fun person to get to know. I will always remember our roller blading adventures throughout campus trying to show off for the sorority girls. I will continue to pray for comfort for your family.

My heart and prayers go out to the families. I had the pleasure of knowing Scott in high school. I was fortunate enough to play against as well as play on the same team with Scott after he moved from S.F. He will be missed.

I knew Scott from our days at Roy Campbell Chevrolet in Thomasville. I had the ultimate priviledge to celebrate his birthday with him last Friday. He was excited and happy about his future. if only for that moment in time. I will miss eveything about you Scott but mostly your warmth and passion. I only wish we had more time together and I could have convinced you that your future could be brighter. I love you bunches Taz. My prayers are with Taylor and Reno as I know they will be missing their Daddy.

I am so sorry to hear of the passing of Scott. I found out too late to be able to express my condolences in person. I coached Scott in middle school football at S.F. My thoughts are with you, Butch, and family at this most difficult time.
