Scott was born Aug. 23, 1968, in Kermit. He grew up in Midland and was a 1986 honor graduate of Robert E. Lee High School. Scott received numerous scholarships and fellowships and went on to attend Texas A&M University and graduated cum laude in May 1990 with a bachelor of science degree in biochemistry. While a student, he worked on a research project for Dr. Tim Lohman in the Department of Biochemistry, which resulted in a publication in The Journal of Biological Chemistry in 1989. Also, while in school at A&M, Scott served as president of the Gay Students Association.
Following graduation, Scott was employed in Indianapolis by Eli Lilly and Company in their Diabetes Discovery Research Division. While with Lilly, Scott was awarded the LRL President’s Association Recognition Award in 1992 which recognizes scientists for outstanding scientific contributions and because of his unique contributions to research for diabetes. Scott became a co-inventor for three patent applications, one of which is now approved. Scott chose his field of study to honor his loving grandmother, the late Clydene Maxwell of Odessa, who suffered with diabetes. After working for Lilly, Scott moved to California and continued his work as a research biochemist employed by Amgen Inc. of Thousand Oaks, Calif.
Scott was strongly family oriented and spent many wonderful holidays and vacations with his immediate and extended families. He was especially loved by his grandparents, aunts, uncles and cousins with whom he spent many wonderful years of his life. He will always be loved and remembered by his entire family, but especially by his mother whose heart is and was always with him. He loved boating, snow skiing, water skiing, wrestling and the beautiful sunshine and beaches of Southern California.
Scott was blessed with many close friends while living in California and would want them all to know how much he treasured their friendship and support. Several of his friends, including Drew Franklin, will be riding in Scott’s memory in the upcoming 7th California AIDS Ride, a 600-mile bicycle ride up the coast of California to gain funding for AIDS research and support.
Scott would also want to express special thanks to his friend, Al Benson, for his extraordinary assistance to his family in their time of need.
Scott is preceded in death by his grandparents, Mr. and Mrs. F.R. Maxwell of Odessa; and his grandfather, William H. Sage of Kermit. Scott also lost many close friends to AIDS during the past 10 years.
