Scott T. St. Pierre

Scott T. of Rockland, formerly of HIngham, passed away suddenly March 5, 2011. Scott was born on Feb. 29, 1972. Loving son of Elly St. Pierre of Hingham and James and his wife Beverly of Weymouth, he was the loving brother of Amy Avallon of California, Laura McLaughlin and her husband Lee of Hingham and James St. Pierre Jr. and his wife Indra McHugh of Hanover; devoted grandson of Grace Doucette of Albuquerque, N.M., and Frances St. Pierre of Englewood, Fla., and the late Louis Joseph St. Pierre; loving uncle of Sean and Brooke McLaughlin, James and Thomas Avallon, Sarah Anne McHugh, and his newborn great-niece, Riley; stepbrother of Jennifer Cullen of California and Joanna Cullen and her husband Brian Saklad of Weymouth. Scott was also survived by many aunts, uncles, cousins and friends. Scott's dog Justice was his constant and faithful companion. This man's "best friend" is a lovable boxer with diabetes whose owner faithfully checked his glucose level twice daily, injecting insulin as needed keeping Justice healthy and fit. Scott grew up in Hingham and graduated from Hingham High School in 1991. For the past five years, Scott was the successful owner and operator of St. Pierre Landscaping on the South Shore. A conscientious worker, and passionate about running his own business, his dad remarked, "When Scott completed a lawn it looked like it had been vacuumed." During time off, he and best bud Justice would frequent Stoddard's Neck and other local dog parks enjoying the mix of pooches and people. An avid and longtime motorcyclist, Scott enjoyed the freedom of the open road riding his motorcycles, and took part in numerous charity rides, enjoying the company of friends, old and new. His mom fondly recalls, and will always remember, his "heart of gold," citing among numerous altruistic acts, the countless times he would donate his rare O negative blood type for others in need. His distinctive laugh brought a smile to many, and clearly was a testimony to how much he enjoyed people from every walk of life. Always first in line to lend a hand, he cultivated and nurtured many a circle of friends. With a massive void now in our hearts, his family and friends will always celebrate his benevolent virtues, and special heart of gold. A celebration of life service was held March 12, in the Pyne Keohane Funeral Home, 21 Emerald St., Hingham, prior to the funeral Mass in St. Pauls Church, Hingham. A private interment ceremony will be held at a later date. Donations in Scott's memory may be made to Boxer Buddies Rescue, P.O. Box 120, Bellingham, MA 02019.
