Our darling Scotty peacefully passed away on May 21, 2026, at home lovingly surrounded by family.
Dearly loved partner of Paula Robinson, much loved Dad of Baxter, and the late Millie, loved son, son-in-law, brother, brother-in-law, uncle, nephew, cousin, and great mate, who will be sadly missed by all.
While heartbroken by our loss, we take some comfort in knowing his battle is over.

To Paula, Baxter and family, please accept our commiserations. Scot was a top bloke, always true to himself, accepted and coped with the gut punches life dealt him, always with good humour. He was so proud of his family and rightly so. We will remember the good times and cherish a great friend.Kevin Mahoney and Sandy Keay
