Scott received his education in the Windom Public Schools, graduating from Windom High School in the Class of 1983. Scott then started working for the family feeder cattle business, Fredin Brothers, as a Cattle Broker. With his position in the company, Scott was able to fly all over the country, which was his true passion. Most recently, Scott and his son, Austin, began raising cattle together and their business was known as Heritage Hills Cattle. This brought them a bond that will never be broken.
On June 24 ,2000, Scott was united in marriage to Lisa Bergendahl. They spent many great years great years together flying all over the country and on the lake at their cabin on Lake Minnewaska. Scott was a member of the First Presbyterian Church in Windom and a member of the City of Windom’s Airport Commission. He will be remembered as a gentle, carefree, driven, family man who loved politics-especially Trump rallies and spending time at the lake in his boat. Scott’s true passion in life was flying-offering others rides at any time or day and flying all over the country, he also loved playing pool, watching Austin play hockey and being a cowboy.
On Sunday morning, December 6, 2020, Scott passed away unexpectedly from a plane accident in rural Windom at the age of 56 years.
