Todd Jason Scott, 47, of Excelsior Springs, died Sunday morning, February 7, 2010 after a courageous battle with cancer. He was the son of Ross and Bunnie (Ewart) Scott. He was born January 11, 1963. He attended schools in Liberty and in California and was a lifelong member of the Liberty Methodist Church.
He was an outdoorsman who loved to fish and hunt quail and pheasant. He learned all the tricks of fishing by the hands of his dad and his grandpa Scott. Also, he was quite a skilled marksman. He started hunting with his dad at an early age, carrying only a play gun. He a young boy, he loved going to visit Grandpa and Grandma Ewart on the farm, where he could drive the tractor, work with the animals, and go fishing in farm ponds. He also loved going to Grandma Scott's for her homemade chicken and noodles. As he got older, some of his loves were riding motorcycles, working on computers, rock and roll music, and playing guitar and bass. He looked forward to spending time during the summer, boating with Dan at Table Rock Lake. His life here was too short, but he's in a better place, free from pain.
Those left to cherish his memory are his parents; two sisters, Suzanne Scott of Excelsior Springs, Judy Heiffus of Independence and niece Stephanie (Mike) Egger of Independence; his special cousins Dan (Doreen) Ewart of Placentia, CA; Godparents Frank and Marianne Maudlin of Liberty; two cousins in Bedford, Bill (Peggy) Ewart and Rick (Louann) Ewart; and special friend, Rev. Bob Shane of Excelsior Springs and many other friends and relatives as well as his little dog Heidi.
Preceding him in death were both sets of grandparents and his beloved uncle Bill Ewart from Bedford.

Todd wanted memorials to go to Liberty Hospital Hospice, 2525 Glenn Hendren Drive, PO Box 1002, Liberty, MO 64069-1002.
