Scott recently retired from Lake County Job and Family Services. He took pride in his position as a MIS Manager and his 32-year-career with the Lake County Commissioners. 

Besides enjoying his job, he loved spending time lost among his tomato and pepper plants.  He was an unforgettable Dad and the sky was the limit for the people he loved. He enjoyed his garden, giving away vegetables, and making the hottest hot sauce no one could consume. He had a love for creating meals and memories with his kids that will last a lifetime.  Scott relished the days filled with fishing, football, and his family.  His family and friends will deeply miss the fun memories, his jokes, and their dear friendship. 

Scott is survived by his four children: Tara Genzen (Michael), Taylor Britton (Danny), Nicole Britton (Alex), Garrett Britton, and his three grandchildren: Ava, Harper, and Scarlett. He is also survived by his loving mother, Marjorie Walker, his brother, Daniel Britton (Celeste), and his sister, Jessica Kelly (Rob). Scott leaves behind many aunts, uncles, nieces, and nephews.

He was preceded in death by his father, Gerald Ptak, and his niece, Heather White.
