Harvey Scott
JULY 23, 1973 – DECEMBER 26, 2021
It is with great sorrow that the family of Harvey Scott announce his passing on December 26, 2021, at the age of 48. Harvey was born on July 23, 1973 in Kenora, Ontario and was raised in Wabaseemoong Ontario. Harvey was a loving son, father, shoomis, brother, nephew, uncle, cousin, and a friend.
As a young child, through the teachings of his parents, grandparents, aunts and uncles, Harvey was exposed to various cultural traditional teachings. He became very knowledgeable in hunting, fishing, trapping, and wild rice/berry picking. This love for the outdoors continued into his adulthood, where Harvey enjoyed spending his time fishing, boating, shore lunches, hunting, trapping, snaring, swimming and spending time with his children and friends. He also enjoyed going on road trips, gambling/bingos, barbeques and participating in fishing derbies. Some of his favorite hobbies as an adult were purchasing tools/equipment he needed in order to work on cars, trucks and other machines that required his special touch. He also enjoyed country music, with Ernest Monias being his favorite musician.
Harvey had an awesome sense of humour and he always found a way to make people laugh. If Harvey felt comfort with your presence, he would tease you and there was always laughter when he was around. Harvey made new friends easily and throughout the years, he had acquired a few nicknames for himself, some include ‘peewee’, ‘dirty pierre’, ‘the king’ and ‘chocolate friend’. Family was also very important to Harvey, he always remembered to call to check in, especially with his mom, his sister Jackie, and his Auntie Celene. His children very also very special to him, he did what he could to show them the love he had for them. Harvey will be remembered by them for his awesome sense of humour, his love, and his kindness.
