After a courageous battle with ALS, Scott leaves behind a legacy defined by the strength of his character and the profound impact he had on others. Though his life was cut short by his diagnosis, he faced every challenge with the same strength, humor, and grace that defined him.

Scott was kind, genuine, personable, intelligent, and deeply ethical—a man whose integrity guided every aspect of his life. He had a warm sense of humor, a lighthearted spirit, and a natural gift for conversation. Energetic and athletic, Scott brought enthusiasm to everything he did, whether it was work, hobbies, or time spent with loved ones. Scott found joy in golfing, hiking, mountain biking, fishing, shooting, walking his beloved dog Remi and traveling with his family. He had a remarkable ability to connect with people from all walks of life, making everyone feel seen and valued. 

Our team name - "Team Meloche - Lucky 13" was selected due to the significance of the number "13" to our family. It was Scott's FBI SWAT call sign, Lauren's HS Volleyball jersey number, and the number on Ryan's College Football jersey junior & senior year.  Scott passed on the 31st (13 flipped) and the score of Ryan's winning football game the day after Scott passed was 31-13. 

We have "Team Meloche - Lucky 13" T-shirts available to order. The deadline is October 25, 2026.  The direct link for the store is: https://cleats.chipply.com/alslucky13/

In conjunction with the Scottsdale walk on Nov. 7th at Salt River Fields, we invite you to join us at the inaugural Alpine Classic golf tournament on Dec. 13th at Eagle Mountain Golf Course honoring Scott's life and legacy while helping raise awareness and funds for ALS Arizona.  Proceeds from the golf tournament will be added to our walk team in memory of Scott.  These funds are crucial in the fight against ALS.  They help ALS Arizona serve 600 patients living with ALS with free programs and services.

Thank you for walking with us, donating, and helping us celebrate Scott.
