Scott was born on May 5, 1964, in Charlottesville, to the late John Gordon Herndon and Patricia Anne Robertson (née Thomas). He enjoyed reading, hiking, and spending time with family and friends. He was a beloved son, brother, uncle, nephew, and friend.
In addition to his parents, Scott was preceded in death by his stepfather, James Robertson, II; uncles, Lindsay Benjamin Thomas, II, Robert Lee Thomas, Sr., and Donald Wayne Thomas; aunt Peggy Thomas; and grandmothers Bernice Thomas and Mary Staton.
Scott is survived by his siblings, Kim Robertson, Janet Jones (Gary), and James Robertson, III; nieces and nephews Whit Robertson, Jessica Jones, Jacob Jones, Chelsea Jones, Brandon Robertson, Mackenzie Robertson; great-nephew Mason Robertson and great-niece Kaelyn Robertson; close friend Kala Vallies; and numerous other extended family members.
Per Scott's wishes, his ashes will be scattered in the mountains at a later date.
