Scott Weiler Obituary

Scott A Weiler

March 11, 1963 - January 12, 2025

Scott Allen Weiler, 61, passed away on January 12, 2025, after a seven-year battle with prostate cancer.

Scott's passing is mourned by his loving wife of 37 years, Deanna (Furtkamp) Weiler and their devoted children, Emily (Logan) Guffey and Mark Weiler. He is also survived by his brother Brian (Linda) Weiler, niece Katie Weiler, nephew Daniel Weiler, and his brothers-in-law Doug (Lisa) Furtkamp, with nephews Mitchell, Travis, and Tanner Furtkamp. Darryl (Devon Mozdierz) Furtkamp, with nephew William and niece Lilly Furtkamp.

Scott's life was marked by a deep commitment to his family and he embraced his role of husband and father. His family and friends will forever remember him for his incredible sense of humor and sharp wit.

Scott was raised in Glen Carbon, IL and attended Edwardsville High School. After receiving his HVAC certification, he worked for 27 years with Johnson Controls in various technical and administrative roles, while working toward his Bachelor's Degree from Strayer University in Virginia. Most recently, he worked for Junior Golf Scoreboard in Glen Allen, VA. In his leisure time, Scott found joy in golf and fishing, hobbies he shared with close friends. On the golf course, Scott's competitive spirit and easy-going nature endeared him to everyone with whom he played.

Scott loved life and embraced the things that truly mattered. He had a remarkable ability to balance work, family, and fun, always making people feel comfortable with his infectious smile and warm demeanor. His easy-going attitude and love of laughter made him a joy to be around.

A celebration of Scott's life will be held at Independence Christian Church in Ashland, VA, on Wednesday, January 15, 2025, at 11:00 a.m. Visitation with the family will precede the service at 10:00 a.m. To honor his spirit, attendees are encouraged to wear Hawaiian shirts, tie-dye, or anything that reminds them of Scott's vibrant personality. In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to First Tee of Richmond, an organization whose mission is to impact the lives of young people through golf, and a cause close to Scott's heart. The family would like to thank the team at St. Mary's Hospital for the exceptional care Scott and the family received during a very difficult time.

Scott's family cherishes the countless memories and moments shared with him. May he rest in peace, knowing how deeply he was loved and how profoundly he touched the lives of those around him.

Brian, I am so sorry for the loss of Scott. Right before Christmas I came across an old picture of some of us kids in Oakdale Lake in your driveway with Mark Thompson little mini bike. Made me thinks of all of us and the innocence and wonderful childhood we had back in Oakdale. Please share my condolences with the rest of the family even though they don´t know me. May Scott Rest in Peace, Grace, Love, Good Health and No Pain. If you want me to send you a picture of the picture just let me know in messenger.

Remembering Scott always begins with a smile. I had the pleasure of knowing Scott for 30 years. He was always positive and thoughtful in work and leisure. He and I became friends at work and it continued after. I recall him as being open, humorous, honest and dependable. He was willing to give people the benefit of the doubt when assessing and addressing ALL situations.
One of my earlier conversations with Scott was around his wife Deanna. I can't remember the details of how it started but I recall chiding him about Deanna hooking her wagon to his rising star. He gave me a very serious look and said no, he was hooked to her rising star. He was not afraid to give credit where credit was due and to always take the humble approach to this and other conversations. That is just one of the many refreshing aspects of his personality.
At work, he reported to me for a couple of years and I always remember him being the one I could count on to take on a situation without griping or complaining...EVER! There was plenty of that going on around him but he was not going to get distracted by any negativity. He will be greatly missed by myself and everyone that knew him!
