PIPER, Scott L.

56, went to heaven on Dec. 24, 2016 from his hometown of Weslaco, TX. Scott graduated from Clearwater High School, USF Business School and UF Law School. He practiced law, but was drawn to computers and the property management of his family's business. He also owned two Dickie's retail stores in Texas. Scott loved life, family, football and travel. He would never hesitate to help someone in need with kindness and thoughtfulness. He is survived by his loving wife, Charlena; and two stepsons, Clay (Melissa) West and Taylor West; father, Walter J. Piper; stepmother, Catherine Piper; siblings, Todd (Carolyn) Piper, Mike (Kay) Piper, Suzanne (Lew Shortz) Piper and Sandy Piper; stepsister, Kate (Stephen) Rumble; along with nieces, nephews; and step-grandchildren.

Oh My Dear Scott, I cannot believe it. I don't think in all of the years I have known you there was ever a time that you didn't make me laugh and bring me happiness. You were always full of joy. I could never thank you enough for all that you did when my Dad was so sick, you made him smile and feel better about things. My memories of you are some of my very best lifetime memories and for that I cannot thank you enough. You were always like my Brother, I love you and I will miss you always!
