Scott graduated from Gull Lake High School in 1973. He married Connie (Jansen) Mumy on September 10, 1977. Scott completed the Carpenters Union apprenticeship course and learned fast from the master, Roscoe, who taught him a work ethic, knowledge, and how to build some amazing buildings. He worked for MW Vanderveen, and Kalleward Construction, supervising the construction of many commercial buildings in Kalamazoo and the surrounding areas.

Scott had Border Collies all his life beginning at age 16, when his dad had him build a fence to earn it. We even received one as a wedding gift. I gave him his first kitten and like the dogs, they were constant companions. Scott was very involved with his sons, Jordan and Clayton's 4-H projects for many years and served on the Kalamazoo County Fair Board.
